Shark in the Head

Shark in the Head

Running time: 75 mins

When a strange person is no longer a stranger.

Charming, strange and very talkative, Mr. Seman spends his days meeting and greeting the many people who pass by his ground floor apartment window. At different times he is a philosopher, preacher, or even therapist--influencing the individuals he stops while his placid demeanor conceals a darker reality. When he befriends a beautiful, young woman, life changes dramatically and the normally hidden side of his world begins to take over.

Imaginative animation and expressive digital effects are used to convey one man's unique view of the world, unfolding into a stunning cinematic powerhouse that combines comedy and drama for a touching story about how we influence the people we meet while being profoundly affected ourselves by the colors they bring to our own lives.

Shark in the Head is a wonderful ride with brilliant insight into someone more than a few steps outside of normal.
