DESCRIPTION
With a fun, quirky and sexy style, and borrowing elements from the horror genre, the story is a juxtaposition of the vibrancy of the 1980’s and the modernity of nowadays apps and technology. There’s a killer on the loose, targeting those who can’t complete his exercise app. Sexy, sweaty male bodies and fierce and stylish girls compose the characters of the story.
The overall visual style of the film is inspired by the Patrick Nagel illustrations, Robert Palmer’s “Addicted to Love” and Olivia Newton-Jon’s “Physical” music videos, Silvester Stallone’s “Rocky”, 80’s work out videos and nowadays workout apps.

​

SYNOPSIS
A Woman, who dreams of being a runaway model, is managing a warehouse gym where a young guy is working out to the instructions from his phone’s work-out app. When he does not finish his exercise, the man in the app comes out to kill him. The woman runs to save the young guy before he dies, but gets distracted by his sparkly Philipp Plein top. She wears it and catwalks out of the warehouse, like a true model, while the young guy screams for help in the background.
