I must hand it to the people involved in this short. They made afilm which is both humourous, - and it's in that,whchits so very frightening. A young ma's on his way to work, sometime in the not too distant future, when he's alerted- on his mobile phone- that he's under arrest. He hadn't done anything, but, it's due to the impersonlaisation of everything that he's locked up, and faces up,to 4u years. The 'public defender's is nothing better than 'Clippy'from Microsoft Bob - and it's due to the failure(s) of all the voice controlled services where Matteo (the main character)fights his battle. Ideally hope that this short leads to a good future for those involved- from direction, and all those behind the camera, to theterrifi performance.

Thought-provoking. Takes the viewer through a roller coaster of emotions ranging from humor to fear to anger. Enjoyable short watch. 10 for Originality.

Brilliant short which brings modern technology into the glaring light. Many take tech for granted, without thinking what the ultimate outcome may be. And therin lies the problem. Tech is slowly but surely, taking over intelligence. People are beginning to forget how to think for themselves. Ironically, technology has become the electronic Dementia, and very few see this.

Short well made look at a potential real situation in near future. Well made, told a lot in the short time given and reminded me of a situation i have been in where looked like proving my innocence was impossible, and would have been if i was not extremely lucky having a witness i did not know i had lol.

I honestly don't know why this has such a good rating, yes it was frustrating watching him have to try to figure things out and get into contact with whoever he needed too, but this could have been so much better if they get into WHY the system is trying to set him and others up. Because that's the feel it gives off while he's in there and the AI's are trying to push him into decisions. A good time filler I think but not a 7 movie. The idea was great, but lacked on the execution. Please get rid of the character requirements, I don't need to write a novel to get my point across, thank you, your users.

I saw that someone made attempt at a claim that this was far from realistic; however, there are multiple stories in the news where someone, after being wrongfully incarcerated for a crime that he or she had not committed, are able to finally be released after 40 years, in some cases. And that's just the ones that have, hopefully, not been executed although innocent. The writers of this short film even talked about a case that they had read about in which a person stayed in jail for weeks just because he had the same name. The person's court-appointment attorney did not even pay attention that the age age and height did not match and that, only when put in front of a judge, did the judge know that it was not the right person right away. This film does a great job, at the end, letting it be known how much of a life one loses when falsely incarcerated by job loss, housing loss and the cost of possibly getting a good attorney. The film also shows how poor can be tricked into pleading guilty to a crime that he or she did not commit due to being scared of the unknown outcome.
