Watch: Michaela Muller Reminds Us Why It Sucks Going To The Airport In New Short Film

And let’s face it,she’s totally in the right on this one.

Michaela Muller’s new animated short film Airport just screened in Portland yesterday, and for those that don’t know, the film explores the borders between the right to freedom of movement and the restrictions national security requirements put on society. In a modern day airport, the flow of passengers is broken by sudden irregularities. Security forces try to get to the cause of the disruption, the atmosphere turns menacing at the slightest anomaly. Tragedy and panic are always just one step away.

Check out the director’s website for upcoming screenings.
