Sinopse Original Original Sinopsis

Jakob, de 17 anos, mora com o pai e avô num pequeno apartamento em Viena. Indo começar a faculdade em breve, ele consegue um emprego temporário no local de trabalho de seu pai, um matadouro. O seu transtorno de ansiedade apodera-se da sua vida por completo. Uma noite, Jakob conhece Kristjan, uma artista de 26 anos, num site de sexo por webchat. A conversa deles torna-os amigos virtuais e, embora nunca se encontrem realmente, os caminhos dos dois homens, no mundo real, cruzam-se de estranha maneira. Com imagens intensas e cenas atmosféricas densas, o diretor Gregor Schmidinger mostra o processo do despertar sexual e da autodescoberta como uma jornada existencial, em que as fronteiras entre realidade e fantasia se tornam cada vez mais confusas.

Sinopse Internacional Sinopsis

17-year-old Jakob lives with his father and grandfather in a small apartment in Vienna. Planning to start college soon, he takes a temporary job at his father’s workplace, a slaughterhouse. His anxiety disorder gets out of control and soon gains the upper hand in his life. One night he meets the 26-year-old artist Kristjan on a cam-chat sex site. Their conversation leads to a virtual friendship, and in the real world, too, though they never really meet, the two men’s paths cross in uncanny ways With vivid imagery and atmospherically dense scenes, director Gregor Schmidinger shows the process of sexual awakening and self-discovery as an existential journey in which the borders between reality and fantasy become increasingly blurred.

Mensagem do Realizador Director Statement
Anxiety disorders are the most commonly diagnosed psychic conditions in the Western world and occur at a disproportionately high rate in millennials. My life has been affected by my own to some extent crippling anxiety disorder for ten years. NEVRLAND was a way for me to work through this subject artistically and at the same time also address the issue of becoming who one really is. The Austrian psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich described fear and sexuality as the flip sides of a coin and the driving forces of life: He saw fear as the life-protecting force and sexuality as the life-affirming force. I felt it was important to give a modern depiction of sexuality that shows how strongly it is influenced by pornography and the digital media. I also wanted to make a film from the post-gay perspective, in other words I didn’t want to focus on the main character’s homosexuality or present it as a problem, nor did I want to make a big deal out of his coming out.
