Description

www.freisebrothers.com (film website) Based on the English author E.M. Forsters short-story of the same title, The Machine Stops is a science-fiction drama that follows two inhabitants of an underground technological dystopia, deemed simply as the Machine. Kuno and Vashti have conflicting opinions about the world in which they live & struggle to find hope on the very day their society comes to a sudden collapse. This prediction of Mans oppressed yet complacent role in the midst of a technology-crazed world in relentless pursuit of an undefined progress is seemingly more relevant today than when it was published in 1909.
