Hong Kong, nearest future. Socio-economic crises have not been exhausted, and political contradictions are only getting sharper. However, even against such a background, detached human minds learn to artificially recreate their likeness. Techno-demo about itself, about self-reflection of the unfinished and artificial. My attempt to convey the voice of those who are dismissed and forgotten in the stream of indifferent progress.(Storyline via IGDB)
