About the film

Automata is a feature-length documentary exploring the relationship between human creativity, mechanical intelligence and contemporary artificial intelligence.

​

The film follows the work of Swiss automaton-maker François Junod, whose handcrafted mechanical figures question our fascination with artificial life, precision and illusion.
