Pixelschatten is a 2011 German film that tells the story of a young blogger and his friends whose lives are derailed when he draws his followers into his narcissistic spiral. The film uses first-person point-of-view sequences, online-videos and user comments to visualize blog entries and user interactions. Pixelschatten was one of the first films to depict social media and decentralized virtual identities within a fictional setting.
Plot[edit]
Two years after graduating from high school, small-town blogger Paul, known as Pixel, realizes that his once-popular autobiographical blog is no longer reaching anyone, and that his friends, now students, have moved on. Unable to take his future into his own hands and striving for attention, he provokes his best friends Dunia and Lutz and his girlfriend Suse with his entries so much that they increasingly turn away from him. When he can no longer find any other way to communicate with them, he decides to cut off all contact and disappear without a trace. The only message he leaves behind is a blog entry with an intimate video of himself and Suse. Weeks later, the local scandal surrounding Paul's and Suse's video has faded. Dunia, Lutz and Suse have grown increasingly apart, dealing with Paul's sudden disappearance in their own way. One day, Dunia uses Paul's now silent blog to tease a sign of life out of him. The new entries get renewed attention as many former readers believe Paul has returned. Dunia persuades Lutz, and later Suse, to use Paul's voice to communicate their grief over his disappearance. With the new attention, and in disguise, they manage to complete Paul's dream and finally turn the blog into a life-affirming community project.
