This compelling short film delves into the essence of human existence on a deeply personal level, examining the nature of consciousness. Set centuries ahead in the future, it follows a neglected spacecraft adrift in the farthest reaches of space, powered and controlled by a human brain. Confined within the cold, mechanical confines of the vessel, the brain, devoid of any memory or self-awareness, astonishingly begins to perceive fragmented glimpses of its past life—images it cannot comprehend. Longing for liberation yet unable to move, the brain formulates a plan to construct a mechanical body using parts from the ship. Perhaps then, it will make sense of the images it sees—perhaps then, it will truly feel alive.
