About This Movie

Egoshooter presents a raw and unsettling glimpse into the life of 19-year-old Jakob, who drifts through Cologne in a haze of voyeurism and existential angst. The film's atmosphere is thick with tension, as his obsession with recording every detail of his life, including intimate moments of his brother and Karo, creates an uneasy blend of intimacy and detachment.

The performances are hauntingly real, particularly in how they capture the characters' struggles with relationships and identity. It’s a distinctive piece that doesn’t shy away from discomfort, leaving a lingering impression long after the credits roll.
