Actor (m/d) as "Der Innere" for a student master project at the Salzburg University of Applied Sciences
A man fights against the demons of his own body. In a surreal cage of guilt, shame and social ideals, he tries to make peace with the thing he hates most: himself.
About_Weight is an experimental short film at the intersection of personal essay, lyrical reflection and physical performance. The film deals with male body images, vulnerability and the need for reconciliation.
The inner man, trapped in a cage of memories and social projections, reflects in a painful letter to his body the stages of a lifelong enmity: from a carefree childhood to brutal discipline through diets, sports and self-hatred to the realization that the cycle of conformity and condemnation never ends.
At the end is the tender question: Can you reconcile with the body you have tortured for years?
ÜBER_GEWICHT is an educational production of the Salzburg University of Applied Sciences, Master MultiMediaArt / Film.

A torn spirit, caught between remorse and rage. His body is a battlefield: he hides mental scars under transparent fabrics, leather and netting
He speaks with the voice of a man who has fought against himself for years: sometimes brittle, sometimes angry, then again desperately pleading. His movements are nervous, almost pathological - he trembles, sweats, struggles with every word. But something flashes in his eyes: a longing for liberation, for breaking free.
