Lucia's Automaton
A woman in white dress waits on a man. The man wearing a name tag "Bolex" and a "Handle with Care" sign is on the verge of his last breath. The woman tries to keep him alive, but, people sensitive to prevailing trends do not spare any attention for the old relics of analogue age in favor of the attractions of HD. Signifying the milestones in the history of film evolution, the film describes the interaction between a camera representing human eyes and the man who has chosen the camera in a fairy tale-like synopsis. An odd love between Lucia and the Automaton with questions for changes in film technology and the mechanism of creation.
