    Storyline

    Edit
    'Time Stau' is a gritty, hyper-real movie detailing a young couple falling in love, experiencing the exciting beginnings of addiction and seeking simultaneous time travel. Partially based on Throwell's personal history, 'Time Stau' expands the narrative from the personal to the global by portraying the fast spreading epidemic of meth destroying lives throughout the world. Dirk Skreber and Zefrey Throwell's first short film collaboration was filmed in Cologne, Germany and takes us along for the ride through a sumptuous tableaux of heartrending narratives of this lost young couple. While most drug films tend to focus on the gutter and the havoc at the end of addiction, this movie concentrates specifically on that incomprehensible moment when ordinary kids throw away their promising young lives and turn towards the dark path of drugs. Seen from their perspective, they are experiencing time travel after simultaneous orgasm while high on meth, seen from the outside they are lost in the fog of drug psychosis. Their lives deteriorate before our eyes, suspended in their own time slip, as they lose all sense of self, friends and family, surrendering to the irresistible lure of the drug and the incomprehensible mystery of addiction. —Throwell, Zefrey
