Artist Short Film

César's personal passion project, "Looking for Something," embarks on a four-minute quest to unravel the mysteries of life. The film sprouted from César's 18-year-old self, navigating the doldrums of a mundane office job where daydreams took center stage. It seeks to capture the rapid-fire musings on the meaning of life, exploring the multifaceted concept of "meaning" itself. The result is a dreamlike 3D journey adorned with arresting visuals and subtle threads of dry humor.

The film narrates the surreal journey of a man navigating the labyrinth of his consciousness, presented aesthetically with abstract scenes that mirror the nature of daydreams. The jump cuts between bustling details and serene wide shots reflect the mind's natural oscillations between conscious thought and subconscious drifts. Vibrant, consistent colors and vintage César characters—disproportionate, long-limbed, and endearing—complete the tapestry of this extraordinary exploration.
