Choch - Trailer

http://brendanprost.com/choch.html
The official trailer for "Choch", a feature length narrative film, independently produced and shot in Calgary on a shoestring budget by the award-winning creator of Generation Why.

The film is a portrait of a man struggling with an unattractive and misleading "choch" identity he's developed for himself over a number of years. Day after day he recoils at the things he says and does, but is confined to complacency and self-hate by the same insecurities that birthed his false persona in the first place. A cycle of regret and resignation seems doomed to repeat itself until circumstance manifests a confrontation between the outward and the inner self, suggesting that perhaps there is hope for this partially assembled soul to be more than what he pretends to be.

Combining anti-aesthetic vérité photography and ostentatious new-wave editing with internalized and heavily improvised performances, Choch offers a highly symbolic and sparingly evocative portrait of a post-modern self in crisis.
