I have seen this at the Lenola International Film Festival, Inventa Un Film . Sure, Smart Card is one of the most impressive short film of the festival. I am a lover of the sci-fi, and truly the director have create a great atmosphere that well embodies the sense of control, the alienation, the shadows of an obscure technology on our future. A future that, how says the film, is not so far. Techology like this will become a standard among few years. Moreover the control exercised by the authorities on our life is ever more, for that the film is not only a playful picture, but is also a warning.
I hope the director continues on this track, with others projects. The sci-fi is not dead. With artists like this, the genre will return.
