like moths to light

This documentary explores the intersection of human dreams and corporate interests. The narrative follows a woman connected to a machine that tracks her brain activity as she navigates a mental maze. This internal landscape blends elements of a vintage amusement park, early dream photography, and modern AI research. The film examines a company called Prophetic that aims to manage dreams, posing a conflict between the fragility of our inner identities and a profit-driven business world seeking to control the last remaining space of intellectual independence.

The film was directed by Gala Hernández López, who also served as a producer alongside Leonardo Bigazzi. This production is the second film directed by Hernández López, following For Here Am I Sitting in a Tin Can Far Above the World from 2024. A co-production between Spain, Italy, and France, the movie has a runtime of 27 minutes.
