In the near future, ten-year-old android Elli drifts through shifting identities, built to embody memories, desires, and losses that are not her own. Programmed as the perfect child, she moves like a ghost between families, becoming at once a vessel for longing and a mirror of hidden fears and forbidden intimacy. With unsettling atmosphere and hypnotic precision, Sandra Wollner’s provocative second feature blurs the boundaries between memory and code, family and fabrication, offering a haunting meditation on loneliness, desire, and the uncanny ways we seek to keep the past alive.
