This film does something many of the others don't. It actually gives some semblance of an answer to what's going on at the end. So many of these films just cram a bunch of questions into their 15 minutes along with some decent acting and special effects and end without answering any of the questions. It's a let down most of the time.
I completely agree. Ive watched like 5 or 6 times, showing it friends over the last like 5-7yrs . All things considered its 🤔 quite interesting about what happens next for me..and for you...because something else definitely happens. It's a worthy effort to describe what it could be for all of us in an insanely, absurdly, worldly, existence...
Does life have any answers? Life is open ended. I am glad they do not try to provide any answers most of the time. That is just how it should be. Let me wonder. You can get your happy ending at the Asian massage parlor.
@@Brianchse Again this is how life is. No answers you have to provide those for yourself. So yeah I do not need an answer for these, I will use my imagination and provide my own various endings.
@@thefrener794 and again I wasn't talking about life, as this film isn't life. If you want to use your imagination to tell yourself a story, or to imagine you're answering unanswered questions, have at it Haus. But I still think films that make sense and give a finished feel are much better than the lazy ones that don't.

This is exactly how I imagine future AI will be. Like once we have a stable ground, a "brain", that can handle an extremely large network of "neurons". By that time we'll surely have other AI capable of simulating a reality, and subjecting the newborn brain AI to a life within it. The brain AI would grow up just like a human, for multiple lifetimes (not remembering them during this of course), then be brought to the real reality and realize they are an AI. They would then have a personality developed from their combined simulated lifetimes. This personality would be evaluated by humans. Finally, if passing the tests, it will be turned into a cellphone and become a human companion - or turned into a vacuum or toaster. And this is how the Brave Little Toaster was born.

I won't pretend to understand all of the hidden existential meaning running through this film but I can appreciate what a quality production this is. The ending certainly caught me off guard which is a rarity these days. Also, kudos to the acting lead. His performance really sucked me in and had me invested in the character.

24.:50 when a person in existential pain decides to proceed with suicide, they feel happy in anticipation of an end to their pain...accurate portrayal, but a trap. Please do not copy the protagonist...the same result is unlikely. Now for your horoscope: You will face a difficult choice. The correct decision will begin a healing process. Things undreamt of will come your way, changing your path and your very self. You will find companionship, truth, meaning and acceptance...
Music definitely had some Philip Glass Koyaanisqatsi vibes to it. Was almost painful waiting so long for him to hop in near the end... The story touched on relevant elements, thought provoking, indeed.

But couldn’t that just be our desire to have meaning? We have emotional attachment to our reality. If our reality is purposeless that would cause one to desire that purpose. Why do we need to be spiritual to have that desire?
A very confusing ending. It takes a little thought to figure out what a future reality of the supposed idea what the afterlife in this strange version of heaven.
The ending explains nothing. So he’s a robot brain all along? Who’s his community, himself over and over again? Do his parents actually exist or were they in his head all along?
👾👾👾👾👾👾👾👾👾👾👾For someone who skipped through piece by piece and watched only the end after that (Yawn) beginning, this reminde me of "Chrysalis"👾👾👾👾👾👾👾👾👾👾👾👾👾
The grave markers of the parents of James, the last living human, are Triangles that represent a Trinity as symbols of their Faith, which is also the most important symbol of the Illuminati. Apparently, some things never change. lol
I like the film until the end. Too many films end up having too many unexplained things to tie up and end it with the explanation that it was a dream or a simulation.
I Would like to say that , girl who plays a Robot does really good job with that movements! i mean , we always talk about human actors playing humans , but never about humans playing robots right? :( My full support to this robot she did good job , If i was robot , i would make a nuclear fusion in her heart , but that will be done in next life! ok ok my robot rizz is done , I enjoyed this film!

@Lordfoogthe3st we are spiritual beings having a human experience. School is not what you have been taught. The physical classroom you are aware of is where you earn a degree in unicornolgy. Pay bills purchase items. Look at what I've done... Rinse and repeat. Your entire human life experience... is the classroom. What will you learn and commit to memory? For not one physical thing, you will have in the end. Wash Rinse and repeat. Unless you become a student. Still above your paygrade. Give it three more times. Deja vu.
@@NBC_NCOyes, these are the concepts of pointlessness one may find in the human experience which the film talks about. None of these are brought to light in the ending though. The ending had not addition to the story. It had no explanation or anything. In my opinion it was lazy.

This was the best SciFi short film when it came out and it still holds up. Incredible writing and a great twist at the end.
I think it is a cheap slap at the end. Also unoriginal.

Interesting take on things, and I especially loved the large hose clamp on his neck at the end. Practical props for the win.
Haha, I recognized it as a hose clamp immediately as well.

By far my favourite movie that needs Hollywood to make it known to the masses.... amazing always keeps me thinking.
Faith in times of trial is the hope that is longed for, the promise of that hope is what is eventually revealed. NEVER GIVE UP HOPE!
The one good thing about post-apocalyptic settings is that you don't need a big cast.
The bad thing is that they are hardly ever romantic comedy.

Who ever came up with the concept what to say, an exceptional piece of creative writing. Are we there yet?
The writing, the concept, and the music in this movie is amazing.
Original and well made. Simply GREAT!👍👍
the very start of this film just ripped my heart out of my chest as a daddy
The ending feels like the writers chickened out of the point they were making throughout the long and depressing wait until the ending.
Compelling AF. Exceptional vision and execution. Congratulations on a tremendous accomplishment. 💚🖖🏼
Wow, fantastic - Merry Christmas!🎅🌲!
agree yes very much fantastic!
Triste, mas belo, com uma fotografia maravilhosa e atuações que valem ouro.

Excellent!!!! I didn't see the ending coming!
yesss thats what I thought!
It was cool! Thank you for sharing!
Certainly did not expect that. Great short🙂
Magnifique, merci.
Great soundtrack
an interesting way to create a service robot. great movie!
Just ...fantastic! Original idea and well play, thank you!
Nice Work!
anyone know where the building at 6:02 is
It's inside an old decommissioned paper mill in Oregon City called Blue Heron Paper Mill
@@wilmagness Oh ok, cool! I actually have relatives that live near there haha
That reminds me... i have to clean out the dryer exhaust vent this weekend.

We are spiritual beings having a human experience.
Why do I always look up at the stars?
It is because instinct tells me I am missing something.
But couldn’t that just be our desire to have meaning? We have emotional attachment to our reality. If our reality is purposeless that would cause one to desire that purpose. Why do we need to be spiritual to have that desire?
We are the Universe experiencing itself.

@@Lordfoogthe3st strange!
same here
What's A.S.?
My guess is “After Sentience”
They should have hired a person with experience as a mime to be the robot. Her movements are way too organic and human.
I thought that her hips moved too much in a feminine way.
Not necessarily. They’d make the robot to be as close to human as possible.
Ela é um modelo feminino, provavelmente essa é a intenção 😂@@eugenetswong

We are all AI?
Should be called "The Casket"

Seen it
So, heaven is full of men and no women nor machines there! All the same equal... I don't want that "future" xD
First to say super
One robot and its sci-fi.......not.
Dystopia, every human dead, apocalypse, futuristic robot. Yes, this is the definition of sci fi.
Reincarnation...
I don't get it.
Stopped watching when “The Manual” was revealed to be the fucking bible.
Lame.
Lazy ending. Meaningless.
When you are narrow-minded.
@Lordfoogthe3st we are spiritual beings having a human experience.
