My Hairy Shadow & I

Andrei Mikes · Marc S. Nollkaemper

A film crew sets out to document Karel (27), who claims to be cursed by a hair fairy and is now being stalked by his own hairstyle.

A local TV station visits Karel (27) at his house to feature his wild story about a hair fairy he met online and the 'curse' it brought into his life. During the interview, Karel shares his tale, accompanied by his own photos and vague webcam footage. But the real evidence of his mysterious encounter is sitting right next to him on the couch: Kourosh, a sensual Persian man. Karel explains that this is his old hairstyle, now personified and stalking him. Whenever Karel shows romantic interest, whether on the street or in a bar, Kourosh magically appears to seduce the person he’s interested in. Kourosh embodies everything Karel feels he has lost: masculinity, toughness, good looks, and mystery. Karel feels he no longer stands a chance in love and romance with the hairy Kourosh always around. Though the curse can't be broken, Karel has learned to live with the hairy hunk of testosterone always by his side—and he’s even come to call him a good friend.
