Description: Made in compliance with brand rules for non- commercial use a mini-film made in Minecraft (Creative Mode).
We can hear the main character’s inner monologue. Torn from his past and unable to make sense of the world around him he questions his own identity, the reality of things happening and his consciousness. We see the level of perception of a certain streamer who is possibly controlling our character in the game. Are the personalities of the player and the character the same? Who is the player? Whose monologue is it? A person who has lost his memory, or an artificial intellect who acquired consciousness in the game — or is it just the stream of thoughts of the film’s creator?
