Radiraidi - Ugis Olte

RADIRAIDI [short fiction]

The Voice. The legend of the radio broadcast. Can there be news bad enough for him not to handle?One continuous shot film that slips through an almost century of time. Creative impulse came from my early traumatic career as a journalist. Probably, it's a horror film. In a way.

"When I studied journalism, I couldn’t accept the profession’s golden standard—that a journalist must strive for objectivity and emotional detachment, essentially sacrificing their humanity. Later, I realized that most news in this world are bad. And even later, I understood that the longer we do some job, the more we become it."
