Aire • The year: 2147. As a result of a devastating chemical war, men worldwide have been rendered sterile. For the past ten years, Tania, a conservation biologist, has been working in finding a way to prevent the extinction of her species with the help of VIDA, an Artificial Intelligence system (voiced by Paz Vega). Their symbiotic relationship is disrupted with the arrival of Azarias, a traveler with a dark past. With its minimalist production design and narrative focus on ideas, Torres Paniagua’s new film (selected to represent the Dominican Republic for the Academy Award for Best International Feature) follows in the footsteps of such equally idea-driven science-fiction films as “THX 1138” and “Silent Running.”.
