Whoa! Urša Menart’s New Movie Gets Real About Fake Online Tragedies!

Urša Menart, director, looking thoughtful.
  • Urša Menart’s wild inspiration
  • The bizarre world of online drama
  • Our take on ‘Everything That’s Wrong With You’

We just heard some wild news about director Urša Menart! Right before the world completely shut down with COVID, she noticed something super strange happening online.

Young people, mostly women, were making up tragic life stories. Like, totally fake stuff. All just to grab some attention from their followers. Seriously.

And here’s the kicker: people would actually drop everything to go visit these ‘micro-influencers’. Can you believe it? So much drama, just for clicks.

Urša saw this whole bizarre vibe and thought, ‘This needs a movie!’ We love that artistic eye. So, she made ‘Everything That’s Wrong With You’. It’s an intimate dramedy, and we can already picture the visual contrast of bright online aesthetics clashing with the dark humor of fake stories.

It’s crazy how much people want to believe these stories. We see it everywhere now, from social feeds to even big news channels sometimes. Remember when Spidey Just Can’t Stop Winning! Another $65M Weekend for Spider-Man!? Real wins feel so much better than made-up ones.

And speaking of what’s real and what’s not, Chrissy Metz Avoided ‘The Big Three’ Weight Loss Drugs – And She’s Not Alone! People are looking for authentic paths, not fake ones.

Our Take

This movie feels so relevant right now. It shines a light on how we interact online. And how we sometimes mistake online drama for real life. It’s a reminder to maybe put down the phone. Look around. Is that a real tragedy, or just a really good performance?
