Synopsis:
Like many teenage girls, Claudia has an intense love-hate relationship with her smartphone. “You make me happy, give me distraction, but sometimes you make me sad too,” she says in the voice-over. Her reflections on her phone, but especially on herself and her “not all that great” life, are the leitmotif in the story of this teenager. She feels alone and insecure, sentiments further fed by the pictures of her beautiful, successful and fun-loving friends on Instagram. The camera follows Claudia during a brief period in her life as she visits and goes out with her friends – with their phones always playing an important role – and in atmospheric shots when she is alone with her phone. Together with Claudia, we dive into the world she herself has created, a virtual world consisting of her preferences and her Facebook likes, which is more real than life itself. It's no wonder then that she's dreading going on vacation, as that means no Internet. Interestingly enough, it is precisely that time without Wi-Fi that turns out to be a breakthrough for Claudia.
