Between consumerism and materialism, a short film addressing the issues of our society

The Milkshake is a short film that aims to reflect on the concept of consumerism in contemporary society. In a world where objects become an illusory promise of fulfillment and materialism, the filmmakers want to demonstrate how this dependency can become a huge inconvenience. Through a visually powerful and incisive narrative, The Milkshake explores how the obsession with material goods brings out the darkest side of each of us.

We wanted to tell a short yet impactful story that would push the audience to reflect on how materialism influences our lives and choices” say the two directors, Salvatore and Francesco.

The short film has been selected for the Amarcort Film Festival in the Super Corti category.
