How to Shoot a Ghost
Directed by Charlie Kaufman • 2025 • United States, Greece
Starring Jessie Buckley, Josef AkikiPart ghost story, part city symphony, this elegiac short directed by Charlie Kaufman traces the meeting of two recently deceased young people—a troubled photographer (Jessie Buckley) and a gay translator (Josef Akiki)—whose restless souls wander the streets of Athens, Greece, where they confront both the remnants of the city’s history and the wreckage of their own unresolved lives. Folding complex ideas around mortality, memory, and migration into exquisite, ethereal images, Kaufman arrives at a breathtakingly moving vision of two outsiders searching for connection and consolation beyond the bounds of life.
