Working with a robot integrated with him, a boy tries to make a new body part to expand the limits of human abilities. The boy is communicating to two other kids simultaneously via specially made glasses. Their visions reflect the real world and also the virtual world. Everything seems interconnected\u2026<\/p>\n
As the title of her previous film Technology<\/i> (2016) suggests, director Endo is fascinated by the impact of machines and techniques on the human condition. Here, \u201cJizai\u201d is the name of the complex exo-skeleton that the kids wear but also means \u201cfreely\u201d in Japanese. This new freedom is a fascinating out-of-body experience that Endo translates with steely, disorienting images, imbued with a mix of distant objectivity and childish wonder.
