Stomach -
Comedy Central

Short Film
2021

"Inspired by an episode of foodie TV, Max decides to gorge himself on a peppery feast. Before he can finish ordering, his stomach gets upset and confronts Max about his confusing culinary choices. Stomach’s flimsy emotional state churns and her unpredictable nature backfires in a frenzied fight.

When Comedy Central approached me to direct this short film, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to bring to life this true story. So I did a bit of research, poured myself a drink, and listened to the harrowing tale of Max Wittert’s run-in with his upset tummy.
