Luminoid

what seems to start out as a banal low budget short about a female android narrated by a British woman with a sexy voice devolves into a weird & surreal piece of art. it's hard to get where this film's strange charm comes from. maybe it's just the eye & ear candy.

the narrator simply describes a couple of events and perceptions and "emotions" of the android whilst various stylized images like the closeup of a mouth of a character that says something to the android. the story kind of has the feel of an installation one might find in an art gallery like video art by nam june paik. there isn't really a story as much as a narrative, but it works brilliantly.
