Schwer

The cast of Jovan Todorovic's new film are 4D people, i.e., humans that are scanned from all angles and turned into digital meatbags. Most of them do what’s asked of them in this Paul Kalkbrenner promo, but others go off-script in strange and often funny ways.

One bloke talks into thin air with a plate of food; another plasters an invisible wall while an exercise class goes on around him; and a woman waxes her legs in the middle of the street. With no day-one patch in sight, the cast's aberrant behaviour only gets worse.

It's as if Kalbrenner's new track, 'Schwer', is too much for the algorithm to handle—all techno and no technical support. The German musician also gets the 4D treatment, and takes full advantage of a subway station all to himself. Or should that be himselves?
