Tin Man meets Tatooine
I'm not quite sure what to make of this short film. There's a certain beauty and simplicity to it-likely thanks to the striking contrast between the gray metal man and the golden sand dunes he walks through.
On the other hand, nothing here feels particularly convincing. The film reminded me of an old movie produced by The Asylum, where a bulky robot was literally made of cardboard boxes. This short gives off a similar vibe.
The desert scenes felt straight out of Star Wars-I half expected C-3PO to appear, wandering across the sands of Tatooine. Yet the robot resembled more like the Tin Man from The Wizard of Oz, which added an odd tonal mix.
Unfortunately, the narration didn't do much to elevate the film. It was glitchy and inconsistent. The actor portraying the robot moved far too naturally-too human-which undercut the mechanical illusion. Therefore, the attempt to explain the squeaking of the robot's joints due to sand didn't quite land.

in desert
Film as seed of a special state. A robot walking in desert. His story presented in essential pieces. The degradation under the action of sand and the determination to continue its way. Not exactly a story but a beautiful parable and just fair atmosphere.
