Directed by Bernhard Wenger • Drama • With Albrecht Schuch, Anton Noori, Julia Franz Richter • 2025 • 102 minutes
At MyCompanion, the cultured and confident Matthias is available - for a reasonable fee - to fill any social role you desire, from 'the perfect son' to the 'enlightened boyfriend', or even 'pilot dad' to impress your classmates at Bring Your Parent to School Day. But while Matthias is at the top of his professional game, his personal life begins to crumble as he detaches from his own identity and burrows deeper into his fictitious lives. Bernhard Wenger's PEACOCK is a biting and hilarious social satire about the masks we wear in the pursuit of human connection.
