On the 21st of October, we visited the BFI London Film Festival. We saw a Turkish film called 'Men on the Bridge' by Asli Ozge. We thought that the way that the characters used a computer is order to form new relationships illustrated an accurate idea of how dependent society today is on technology.
Likewise a short animation at the festival called 'Speechless' by Daniel Greaves implied a similar suggestion about modern society. In this animation it exaggerated how people have become so dependent on mobile phones and the internet that they have lost the ability to speak. We thought that though an exaggeration, it gave the correct idea of what society is like and we decided to use this. The relationship in our narrative will also display communication through technology.
