The film is a collaboration between several BUas Creative Business lecturers. The script is written by Miruna Doicaru and Charlie Hicks and was conceptualised during an academy staff trip. It is produced by Arleen Cuevas and lensed by Fritz Kohle, who are both Creative Business production lecturers. Audio recording was done by BUas alumni Wouter Maas and Noortje Driessen, with audio mix support from Eric Wels. 

‘We are very proud to have been able to see this project through to completion and the inclusion in these film festivals is the icing on the cake. I don’t think it would have been possible without all the support we received from the BUas community and the management of AGM (Academy for Games and Media).‘- Charlie Hicks 

Synopsis: Teacher Lily Luck experiences an existential crisis. She seeks liberation from the terrible every day and strives to find a little magic and superior meaning in life. A journey of self-discovery that equates to accepting and pursuing chaos. To find her true self, she may first have to destroy all the constructs in her life. Will she find what she's looking for?
