As digital technologies evolve from spaces of connection into parasitic commodities, a quiet cognitive malaise has permeated our lives. 

This short documentary examines how our digital devices have become deeply embedded in everyday life. Public attention has shifted toward the consequences of prolonged screentime as the effects have become impossible to ignore. At the same time, a growing number of lawsuits are challenging whether tech companies are liable for addictive and harmful designs. This film takes a non-narrative approach to illustrate a period of uncertainty, where these insidious forces influence our lives. 

Interviews with experts offer an outlook on the current state of our digital world. Visual effects and unconventional cinematography provide tangible imagery for abstract concepts like addictive design and cognitive overload. Together, the film creates a hybrid language blending investigation with experimentation.
