DEAD

by Sven Halfar

synopsis

Patrick feels absolutely lonely when he decides to search for his supposable genitor after the suicide of his mother. He doesn’t have a plan, a goal or hopes. He just wants to meet the phantom that he thinks is the reason for his mother’s death. Almost remote-controlled he approaches the person that never took notice of him since his birth. That declared him as “nothing”. He starts a desperate visitation. His found or imagined father is the father, he always wanted with a perfect family. A beautiful wife, a cute daughter, a big house, a prominent person. An incarnation of Patrick’s imagination. An Image that Patrick in his anger destroys utterly. Regardless of the consequences.
