Senseless.
Dir. Roman Meyer
As technology evolves, we lose the power of attraction.’Senseless’ shows a future where we have forgotten how to rely on our basic senses. Instead we absorb the world and communicate through our mobile devices. We rely on data about our surroundings instead of looking and listening for ourselves; and we no longer use touch and the power of attraction to start relationships with each other.
‘Senseless’ is the winner of four awards at the Setting Sun Film Festival 2014. Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Short, Best Film Western Suburbs
