For Lack of a Better World
Coming
6th November, 2026
Overview
An experimental documentary short exploring how our sense of self is reshaped through conversations with machines. Through the lived experience of people in India speaking to AI, the film captures a fragile moment in which intimacy, care, and vulnerability are quietly shifting away from human bonds and toward artificial companionship. What happens when we train a machine to understand us better than we understand ourselves? Though these exchanges take place in private, the voices reveal something collective.
