Emergency Exit is a film about escape. It was produced with a 360° camera and thus conceived for virtual reality glasses. It’s the account of a protagonist who, due to social pressure, flees from her reality into the reality of her computer games. This project was created in conjunction with the graduation project at the HBLA–High School for Artistic Design.

The topic of the senior-year project was escapism. Katharina Hollinetz decided that her work would focus on young people and deal especially with media. The actual process of completing the video project took nearly five months.
