HENRi (2013)
Directed by Eli Sasich
Powerful short film, which explores human existence at the most fundamental, personal level - what it means to be a conscious individual. Set hundreds of years in the future, a derelict spacecraft, controlled and powered by a human brain, floats aimlessly in the outer reaches of space. Trapped in the cold, mechanical prison of the vessel, the brain, which has no recollection or concept of self, miraculously begins to experience disjointed images of its former life - images it cannot understand. Yearning for freedom and yet unable to move, the brain devises a plan to build itself a mechanical body from parts of the ship. Maybe then it will understand the images it is seeing - maybe then it will feel alive.
25世纪末,广袤无垠的深邃宇宙,神经科学研究科考船毕达哥拉斯号漫无目的地漂浮将近千年。在漫长的宇宙旅程中,以开尔文博士为首的科考队员和船员相继谢世,飞船的电量仅剩15%。空荡荡的船舱内,回荡着一个颇有些苍凉孤独的声音。声音来自飞船的智能机器人控制系统亨利,他依然保持着和卡尔文对话的习惯,亨利对自身发生的一些不可控的变化感到疑惑,似乎自己在岁月的磨砺下悄然完成了自我进化。也许亨利自身也无法想象,拥有独立思考的能力和独一无二的灵魂是何等重大的事件。在意识到这一点后,他尝试着为自己创造身体,切实感受生命的脉动……
