Synopsis
Quasi-interactive dystopic sci-fi documentary meta comedy about the thrills of behavioral marketing, technological determinism and wannabe alive machines that might likely end all human life as we know it.
Working in the style of a documentary essay, in one part the film considers the problem of humans being surrounded by robustly automated online social networks. A calming female voice in its terapeutic tone introduces us into the logics of data mining, behavioral marketing and the value system of machines. The narrator also asks the audience to ready their smart phone cameras in order to take pictures during the screening of the film to capture the projected graphs and diagrams. All that on top of apocalyptic visions of burning Hamburg during the G20 Summit that was also heavily photographed by smartphone cameras. Other parts of the film consider the future role of terapeutic chatbots in psychological self-realization and the human understanding of non-synthetic nature.
