Tip from Cineville: Uppsala Kortfilmfestival

Nicolas Gebbe is a filmmaker, 3D artist and sound designer born in 1986 in London, currently working in Frankfurt am Main in Germany. With sharp wit and a keen eye for current social criticism, his films explore how new technologies interact with advertising and social media to distort reality and shape desires, fantasies and memories. Inspired by architecture and everyday spaces, his works are often based on existing spaces that surround us and our habitual movements within them in relation to the digital reality.
