Planets and Robots

Planetos ir robotai Directed by: Julius Zubavičius, Antanas Skučas
Produced by: Antanas Skučas
LT 20236' en

A film for humans, created by artificial intelligence. Swimming through a sea of gouache-coloured planetary chatter and hands melted into computer keyboards, new forms of existence are achieved. Let us not fear or tremble: no one has robbed humans of their creativity. The ability to feel, to love and to use one’s empathy does not give way – it all just takes a back seat to audiovisually capturing technology at its inception.

Like 2001: A Space Odyssey in the era of ChatGPT. With the advent of chatbots, machine translation and new media, the way we communicate has changed, as have our practices and time we spend on making images. Lithuanian composer Julius Zubavičius and animation director Antanas Skučas amiably challenge the creativity of one species and entertain it with AI-generated images animated by… humans.
