19-year-old Jakob
lives in Cologne, sharing a flat with his brother and the latter's
girlfriend, Karo, who is pregnant. He's a drifter and obsessively
records his daily life on video. He films himself while masturbating,
secretly observes his brother and Karo through the lens and documents
the concerts of Phillip, his friend. He gets drunk with Piet's
mother, satisfies Mani on the river banks, scrounges money off
pedestrians, breaks into a house and together with Phillip smashes
the furniture.
Egoshooter is a fragmentary
document of Jakob's reality. By means of association, scenes come
together to form a puzzle that paints a fractured portrait of
Jakob. In this experimental blending of video diary with feature
film elements, atmospheric snapshots take the place of a linear
narration."
