The Mandrake Machine

"The Mandrake Machine" is a stop-motion film I created during my senior year at Columbia College Chicago. It features a young man using his new invention, the Mandrake Machine, to jump into his own dreams. Here, he is forced to confront the nightmarish rabbit haunting his psyche.
