Filmmaker Statement

In 2017 Alex' friend Sebastian went to rehab due to his gambling addiction. Neither did Alex know that his friend had a gambling problem, nor did he know how this kind of addiction works. So he decided to conduct an interview with Sebastian. The soundfile remained unused for 3 years, until Alex teamed up with his brother's girlfriend Emily, a freelance artist. Together, they created this unique, hand drawn short film that portrays the horrors of pathological gambling, while at the same time showing that there is hope. The making of the film took them 1,5 years.
