Samsara, Sanskritçede "sonsuz döngü" veya "yeniden doğuş döngüsü" anlamına gelir ve belgesel de bu temayı işler. 25 farklı ülkede 5 yıl boyunca çekilmiş etkileyici görüntülerle doğanın, insan yaşamının, modern dünyanın ve ruhani geleneklerin bir döngü içinde nasıl birbiriyle bağlantılı olduğunu gözler önüne serer. Diyalogsuz anlatım, yalnızca görüntüler ve müzikle sağlanır, bu da izleyiciye derin bir görsel ve duygusal deneyim sunar. Doğal güzelliklerden kutsal mekanlara, modern sanayiden tüketim toplumunun karmaşasına, ölümden yeniden doğuşa kadar geniş bir perspektifte insanlığın varoluşunu inceler. Özellikle fabrika işçileri, şehir yaşamı, savaş, doğa felaketleri, dini ritüeller ve farklı kültürlerden insanlar gibi temalar üzerinde durarak, medeniyetin gelişimi ve ruhaniyet arasındaki ilişkiyi sorgular.

Science fiction has long anticipated the rise of machine intelligence, and today a new generation of self-learning computers has begun to reshape every aspect of our lives. Will A.I. usher in an age of unprecedented potential, or prove to be our final invention?

An immersion into the life and writings of the extraordinary American science fiction writer Philip K. Dick (1928-82), whose outstanding work predicted like no other the dystopian debacle toward which the chaotic world of the 21st century is inevitably heading.

Robolove is a documentary that explores the interaction between humans and humanoid robots. The filmmaker visits various technology research centers in Japan, Korea, China, USA and Europe as researchers share the challenges of injecting human emotions into these robots.

The filmmaker Jeppe Rønde has invited 10 of the world's foremost researchers - and a robot! - to rethink our relationship with technology and its dilemmas from the outside. Philosophers, anthropologists, archaeologists and programmers show us through their thought experiments that our relationship with technology is just as much about our relationship with ourselves.

Exploring provocative viewpoints from engineers, factory workers, journalists, philosophers and Asimov himself, The Truth About Killer Robots is a cautionary tale about a world automating beyond control.

"Mechanical Love" is a documentary on the interrelationship between robots and humans. The film portrays people who have a close relationship with a robot, and it takes us from the high temple of robot technology, Tokyo, Japan, to Braunschweig, Germany, to Italy and back to Copenhagen, Denmark. By this world tour director Phie Ambo seeks to highlight the human need for love and our craving to be loved by others - perhaps the two most important aspects of life. Through the main characters, she examines the cultural differences in how we accept emotional robots in the East and the West.

Erica is 23. She has a beautiful, neutral face and speaks with a synthesized voice. She has a degree of autonomy – but can’t move her hands yet. Hiroshi Ishiguro is her ‘father’ and the bad boy of Japanese robotics. Together they will redefine what it means to be human and reveal that the future is closer than we might think.

From current events but with cinematic, intimate, and innovative storytelling, this series of short docs portrays the unprecedented transformation the world is undergoing. We focus on conflicts and stories that are at a point of paradigm shift, at a moment when the decisions that are made now can affect humanity and the planet.
