Welcome to the Kaufman surreal-neorealism tale in a dull world of sameness.

AnimationDramaRomanceComedy

An inspirational speaker becomes reinvigorated after meeting a lively woman who shakes up his mundane existence.

VIBE

A deeply melancholic and unsettling stop-motion journey into the soul of a man grappling with profound loneliness and the crushing monotony of existence. It's an intimate, almost voyeuristic experience, punctuated by fleeting moments of fragile hope and the quiet ache of human connection, all rendered with a uniquely tactile and disquieting realism.
