A LOW LIFE MYTHOLOGY

80 minutes, 2011

“A Low Life Mythology” focuses on Mana Avaris, an international student at an art school in Berlin, who loves to smoke weed and make art but hates school. The film accompanies her daily struggles with romance, friendships, and visa, while incorporating the art that Mana and her friends’ circle is creating. These are often personal experimental short films that correspond and process things that go on in their life.
