Short description

This documentary examines the emergence of startups that use artificial intelligence to build avatars and chatbots of deceased people. By processing personal data such as messages, videos, and letters, these companies allow grieving relatives to communicate with digital versions of their loved ones. The film explores the human longing for immortality and the ethical implications of turning the process of mourning into a commercial product.

The film was directed by Hans Block and Moritz Riesewick, who previously collaborated on The Cleaners in 2018. Produced by Georg Tschurtschenthaler and Christian Beetz, the project was a co-production between Germany, the Netherlands, the United States, and the Netherlands Antilles, with support from organizations including ARTE, WDR, ORF, and Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg.

Released on June 20, 2024, the film has a runtime of 87 minutes. It has received a moderate reception from viewers, holding a rating of 6.3/10 on IMDb based on 283 votes and a slightly higher score of 6.7/10 on TMDB from 10 votes.
