The year is 2078, the plot develops against the background of live after World War 3: Nature is contaminated, cities are in ruins, no human sounds are ever heard. The robot girl AINOA is programmed to control this “great atomic war” through time – and thus control the present via the past. Three universes live side by side: The regime who controls the war lives in decadent palaces and savours the last ressources. The people – sons and daughters of them both – try to survive without civilization. The technicians, who made the war possible with their inventions, but decided to revolt when seeing where the war went to. They send out a team to find AINOA.
We worked for over 3 years to shoot this film. It was a very low-budget student project and all team members participated for free: Thank you !!!
The most spectacular tasks were the development of Kei’s “home” and the boat on an underground lake. For Kei I proposed to set it up in an abandoned factory, where she could have used the fabrics and materials found to make herself comfortable; it contained a water pool and a little garden for self-sustainability.
