wunsch drei (3) is about the alchemy of repetition, about friendship. Filmed in Zurich, a city that turns you inward until you come out the other side, the film adopts an online mode of creation, bridging the terrestrial with the "outside". These relations could only arise within an internet native experience, precisely in relation to making sense of the IRL, while digital space is increasingly governed by the same constraints as lived experience, just as the world is reshaped by network logic. It is a coming of age in the 21st century. This short film was shot during summer 2025, distributed in different cuts.

"| love how monad 5 defies the other monads by being a person, you" My personal history of 2025 as it runs through everyone I know. Monad 5 is a film composed of parts of me and parts of others, texts, images, and found footage gathered over a year, a shitting portrait of how we move through the world now.
