Martin Cries

Martin is crying. He is alone. He wakes up in the morning and finds that all his friends have disappeared—just gone. He sets out to look for them, searching everywhere: in the city, in the mountains, in the rivers—but he cannot find them. This makes him furious, really furious—really sad. Filled with rage, violence, longing, and loneliness, Jonathan Vinel tells a story of love and loss entirely based on elements from the computer game *Grand Theft Auto V*. It moves beyond all kinds of tawdry notions and presents the narrative with extremely concrete physicality, without fear of great feelings, without fear of one's own courage, and without fear of violence.
