This is a truly odd little short film but it really makes you think. After all, in a world of the internet and a seeming decreasing need for human contact, such a crazy world as is shown in this short film seems possibly prophetic.
The film begins sometime in the future. A man is alone in his apartment and is awaiting a visitor. Soon, a woman arrives but it's obvious quickly into the film that she must be a robot--or, rather, a robot prostitute. All she seems to be programmed for is sex and the man wants something more--emotional comfort and contact. However much he try, however, she simply isn't programmed for anything more and his needs are left unfulfilled by the end of the film.
Despite the nature of the film being sexual and a brief scene where you see just s bit of skin, this isn't a dirty film and is one that's probably okay for teens to see.
I liked not only the message of desperation and isolation but was also impressed that for a second film by two new directors that the production values were so high. The music, in particular, was great and it looked as if a lot of money went into the film--though I assume like almost all other short films it was done on a shoestring budget. Based on what I saw here, I sure can't wait to see more of their work! Nice job and I can see why this film was named "Best Drama" with the Campus Movie Fest.
