Captivating at times, but no cohesive structure

It's a conceptual art film, reminds me at times of the film Samsara and Baraka. Capturing the human condition paired with automation.

The visuals are interesting and at times, quite captivating. The music is also the same.

This also reminds me of Bjork's Biophelia app that was available for a period of time. Navigating to different areas on a map and experiencing different stories.

My main critique is that this is purely an art film, better suited for a real life event such as Nuit Blanche, rather than sitting and watching this in a theatre, trying to make sense of it all.

In a theatre, you're searching for a cohesive structure. How it all ties together, but there's nothing that ties all of these short films together.

Animation is a form of visual storytelling that involves creating visual art and motion through the use of various techniques and technologies. In animation, images are manipulated to create the illusion of movement, bringing characters, objects, and environments to life. Animation can encompass a wide range of styles, themes, and intended audiences, making it a diverse and versatile form of storytelling.
