In a city where you can have anything delivered, one man gets more than he bargained for.
Packages Synopsis
Packages is the debut project from first-time writer / director Nick Barat. Described as a “nightmare comedy” and “Franz Kafka with an Amazon Prime account,” this short film is the latest creative evolution for Nick, who has spent two decades in culture as a DJ and producer, graphic designer, co-founder of Fool’s Gold Records and editor at The FADER Magazine. “With my background, it would have been obvious to start with a film about ‘music,’ but Packages is still very much my sensibility, my rhythm and the way I see the world. It’s an exploration of dream logic and visual storytelling – stylized, surreal and satirical, mashing up genres while cracking some jokes in the process.” Packages is currently submitting to film festivals for a premier in 2026.
Packages is a comedy, horror and science fiction film directed by Nick Barat with a runtime of 9m. It stars Benjamin Anthony Anderson, Marinda Anderson, Elle Anhorn and Nicole Asava.
