Trigger Happy

About This Movie

So, "Trigger Happy" is pretty unique, you know? It dives into this chaotic world shaped by everyday found objects—think New York City streets. The film started as something more refined, like a ballet, but it kind of evolved into this wild, animated party. The visuals are striking, made with silhouettes shot on a lightbox using high-contrast film, which gives it this almost surreal vibe. It’s not just about pretty pictures; there's a real playfulness in how the objects come alive, and the pacing keeps you hooked. The themes of urban life and transformation are really intriguing, and you can see the artists' hands in every frame, which adds to its charm.
