Synopsis

Cyborg Generation broadens the scope of traditional human rights topics. This experimental documentary follows 18-year-old musician Kai, who develops and integrates a cybernetic organ into his body, as he explores uncharted dimensions of perception. As a cyborg, Kai can hear seismic signals from outer space on Earth. The film explores themes of queerness, identity, material posthumanism, and self-expression, all while questioning the boundaries of human experience.

Opening film: Ender's Line (Gabriele Biasi, IT 2023, 15min).
This experimental documentary combines archive footage of space exploration with the personal archive of protagonist Fernanda Gonzalez, who leaves behind her loved ones in Buenos Aires.
