Renowned psychotherapist Ruben Brandt is tormented by violent nightmares in which figures from famous artworks attack him. Convinced the visions are rooted in unresolved trauma, Brandt enlists four of his criminal patients to steal the thirteen paintings that haunt him.

Directed by Milorad Krstić, Ruben Brandt, Collector merges hand‑drawn and digital animation into a cubist, constantly shifting visual field. Paintings by Botticelli, Hopper, Warhol and Picasso bleed into noir thrillers, Bond‑style action and surreal dream logic. The result is an adult animation that treats art not as reverent museum object, but as a living, unstable force capable of obsession, violence and transformation.

‘One of the decade’s most wildly original animated triumphs.’ — Carlos Aguilar, The Playlist
