More About "She":
In the dystopian landscape of London in 2091, a male and a female service android find themselves marooned in an apartment following the city's evacuation. Decades later, a curiosity awakens in the female android, compelling her to question the unknown beyond their door. This sparks a profound debate between the two androids, as they grapple with the conflict between adhering to their programmed directives and the burgeoning sentience within the female android-a concept that eludes the comprehension of her male counterpart.

I made this film as a metaphor for our human experience: that relationship you should move on from, that job you need to let go of, that jump of faith you're delaying. Did you catch these undertones? How much time are you willing to wait?

I like the subtlety of this and how it’s not dependent on blatant action scenes. It’s quite a philosophical piece and makes you think. The ‘less is more’ visuals give just enough to make you want to see more and see this as a full film.

@EugenioVillamar Месяц назад

I truly appreciate your comment. Sometimes it’s difficult to read between the lines of simplicity. That’s why some people are more worried about what is outside rather than truly understanding a quite simple dilemma which goes deeper into the philosophical. I tried to give weight to every single word and went through many drafts over several years. Believe it or not it is fifteen year old script that stayed in a drawer and suddenly became relevant not because of technology but because we are in the verge of questioning our own existence as humankind. Thank you for watching.

There's plenty here to be curious about. Why did the people abandon the cities? Where did they go, and why didn't they come back? It seems clear they intended to come back or why have the androids protect their homes? Why did they leave their androids behind? What will she discover in her explorations? Will she find out what happened to the humans? So plenty of reasons to be curious for more. :)

Interesting video. I love the abandoned landscape of London and the cinematography is beautiful. I appreciate the male drones juxtaposed against the female sentience. I watched it in 5.1 theater mode to try and do justice to the DP & Director. Way better than watching on a phone. Ending seemed a little short, it would have been nice to see her step across the threshold or get a shot of her exiting the building and direct sunlight hitting her face.

@EugenioVillamar 2 месяца назад

Thanks for watching as it was intended. You're right, maybe that shot outside would've given us more conclusion, yet I wanted to leave it open for the viewer to think about their own exit in the metaphor of their human life. I truly appreciate the comment.

The Palm Trees in the video appeared to me to be out in the open. I know they are growing Redwoods in the open over there these days.

Decades Later, seams like this has been festering since the humans left. How did it take the A.I. so long too come to the conclusion to leave, and what is on the other side of the door is not always Greener Grass. If she opens the door, and a machine gun or grenade is the first thing after the sun to hit her body. So many unknowns, I wonder if this A.I. is smart after all? So many other service bots in this building, one might have orders to destroy any bot that leaves the building, the hunt begins...
