METANOIA


Student World Impact Film Festival 2023 Best Short Film Nominee
Student World Impact Film Festival Laurel Quarter Finalist Nominee 2023

Is there any such thing as a utopia? In a distant future, humans constructed a society without fear or harm, at the expense of what truly makes us human. This is a concept film on the relationship between humans and new technologies, exploring futurology, psychology, transhumanism, ethics and our role in an ever changing world. Inspirations for this film include Minority Report, Blade Runner and Gattaca.

Produced as part of Craving For Future Realities, a semester project at HTW Berlin.
Semester project coordinated by Prof. Andreas Ingerl.
