Abstract

Fighting Monsters is a documentary short film that follows the story of revenge through the lens of a seemingly ordinary setting: a go-kart track. On the surface, go-karting appears to be a fun, entertaining activity for family and friends. However, with a closer look, this outwardly innocent space becomes a microcosm for human conflict, rivalry, and, ultimately, revenge. After
an accident occurs, leaving one employee injured, the go-kart track manager rallies to seek justice for his coworker and friend. The story is told through interviews, archival footage, and newly shot footage. The film invites the viewer to consider the lengths that society allows for seeking revenge while also pushing the viewer to decide what is or isn’t too far.
