Some Kind of Intimacy
On a wet autumn day, filmmaker Toby Bull travels to the rural graveyard where his parents are buried. Waiting for him, he finds a flock of sheep. A delicate, curious film that explores our human need for communication and connection, in spite of everything. In the aftermath of a fatal traffic accident, Nicolas Gourault’s film presents an unsettling investigation into the role of human workers in the training of self-driving cars. What does it mean to see our public spaces transformed into data landscapes, and who is really in control?
