The Machine Stops

Short, Sci-Fi,

2009 · 7 min · ★ 6.0 · Science Fiction

Two people live in a dark technological utopia/dystopia - "the Machine". Kuno and Vashti, have differing opinions about the world which they live in and their interaction and conflict as their society comes to a sudden collapse. The story raises themes of man's role in the midst of a technology-dependent built environment that are seemingly more relevant today than when the original short story was published in 1909.

Directed by Adam Freise
