Built from real performances scanned, fractured and reassembled inside CG environments, Helicopter pushes Streit’s human-led animation into darker, stranger territory – uncanny without ever losing its physical weight. Rocky drifts above the chaos, then straight into it, as militarised forces close in and the city splinters below. What starts as play quickly curdles into something more brutal: satire baked into spectacle, realism bleeding through the pixels.
If Streit’s earlier work with Rocky, Shittin’ Me, flirted with absurdity, Helicopter commits fully: louder, sharper, and ending on an impact you feel rather than watch.
