Both striking and surreal, “Hypertrain” was completed by Etienne Kompis and Fela Bellotto as their graduation film while studying 2D-animation together at Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts in Switzerland.

Fela & Etienne: “On a train trip through spatial and temporal dimensions the traveller suddenly comes across himself.”

Produced as a co-production with SRF (Swiss Radio and Television) and supported by Aargauer Kuratorium, Berner Filmförderung, and Zollikofen.
