Choch is 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 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.
