The film is fully written, produced and animated by Isabel Schulz on her own and aims to experiment with a more abstract way of storytelling - reminiscent of poetry - in animation. doom rolled in glitter tells its story with its restricted but very intentional use of color.

We are transported into a foreign colorless world only made up of grayscale, where its inhabitants strive after a way to turn their world colorful. They expeirience their biggest breakthrough – colorizing organic matter – but absorbed by exitement, they never stop to think about the concequences this endeavour might have on their world and themselves.

This short is a very bitter-bittersweet view on the possible end of the world, because humans are so in love with the world they have made for themselves that they cannot see that their creation is destroying them. And in that offering a different perspective on well known Climate Crisis narratives, that may already be falling onto deaf ears by a more general public. I feel that by moving into a more fictitious space and creating a foreign world that falls apart it allows viewers to take a step back and start a genuine conversation about what action is necessary without affronting viewers and making some defensive.
