The Bearer of Chaos

Jakob has struggled with his emotions his entire life, shaped by a childhood marked by anger and months in foster care. Without a role model to look up to, the only example he knew from home was his father’s rage. After his parents’ divorce, Jakob assumed this role himself. By the age of eleven, he was already violent—testing limits in a desperate attempt to challenge his mother’s, and his family’s, love.

The turning point came through his grandfather, who showed him what it truly means to be a compassionate being. Yet the grief of abandonment never left Jakob. Convinced he was the only one suffering, he returns to his grandfather in search of answers.

When Jakob begins filming, he creates a space where old wounds, suppressed memories, and half-forgotten truths resurface. Gradually, the entire family is drawn into an unexpected confrontation with the past and Jakob discovers he was not the only victim. Can anything good come from reopening a history nearly swallowed by oblivion?

The Bearer of Chaos is a film about love and the power of reclaiming one’s own story—an attempt to break free from the past in order to face the future.
