The Human Surge (Template:Lang-es) is a 2016 experimental film by Argentine director Eduardo Williams. It is Wiliams' first feature film, after a couple of short films. The Human Surge is structured in three different segments: one in Buenos Aires, the second in Mozambique and the third in the Philippines. Williams has stated that he wanted to explore the sensation and feelings related to aimlessness and travel, and thereby "create a rhythm between excitement and boredom or surprise and depression."

The film was released on film festivals in 2016 to critical acclaim. It won the main prize in the section "Filmmakers of the Present" at the 2016 Locarno Film Festival.

Production

Williams, aged 29 at the time, had made short films since 2011, in which he had experimented with different video formats and textures.
