Director Statement
Seeing how almost all my activities and those of others became a solely digital interaction, made me deeply question the Zeitgeist of digital era. Becoming less humanistic and more subordinated to an implacable computational logic.
So, I decided to write Ada Office (Sharani Ballesteros). Story about an operating system with functions of personal boss, programmed to optimize the productivity and performance of its employees and its interaction with Emilio (Emmanuel Zavala), incarnation of that part within us that in the search for total perfection through automation causes its own “obsolescence” or “cognitive atrophy.”
Emilio stops trusting his intuition, represses his emotions, eliminates any critical thinking … he forgets that he is a biological being. Therefore, fights against his own nature.
