The Total Refusal collective is a pseudo-Marxist media guerrilla focused on the artistic intervention and appropriation of mainstream video games. We upcycle video games in order to reveal the political apparatus beyond the glossy and hyperreal textures of this media. By moving within the games but setting aside the intended gameplay, the collective reallocates these resources to new activities and narratives, aiming to create "public" spaces with critical potential. How to Disappear (2020) was directed by the following members of the collective: Michael Stumpf, Leonhard Müllner, and Robin Klengel.
_How to Disappear_ is an anti-war movie in the true sense of the word, searching for possibilities for peace in the most unlikely place of an online war game, _Battlefield V_. It’s a tribute to disobedience and desertion - in both digital and physical-real warfare.
