Loosely based on Franz Kafka’s short story, 'GIVE IT UP!' is a live-action animation odyssey through the confusion of life in the modern world. The narrative follows a lone salesman trapped in a timeless city, increasingly lost in his feverish dreams. Desperate, he races towards a train station as his last hope of escaping the city, encountering divine light, winding roads and the forces of bureaucracy. This deeply personal and referential work preserves Kafka’s absurd humour and pays homage to Weimar cinema of the 1920s, but also elevates the text to an existential meditation on authority, purpose and human helplessness.
'GIVE IT UP!'

A legendary hitman known only as 'The Resolver' returns to a city rotting with corruption after two years in exile. Once a myth whispered about in criminal circles, he re-emerges from the shadows to confront the forces that destroyed his past and murdered his partner. But when love unexpectedly enters his life, his quest for vengeance collides with his chance at redemption. As he tries to balance both, the underworld he serves turns against him and he has to pay the price. The Resolver is a dark, neo-noir thriller about love, revenge, and the cost of justice.
