I'M YOUR MAN
Sommerkino - Sandra Hüller Retrospective
Drama // 105 minutes // 2021
Alma is a scientist at the famous Pergamon Museum in Berlin. In order to obtain research funds for her studies, she accepts an offer to participate in an extraordinary experiment. For three weeks, she is to live with a humanoid robot whose artificial intelligence has been designed to allow it to morph into that of her ideal life partner. Enter Tom, a machine in (handsome) human form, created to make her happy. What ensues is a tragicomic tale that explores notions of love, longing and what makes us human.
"Ich bin dein Mensch" (I’m Your Man) is a German drama film that premiered in 2021. The film delves into themes of love, identity, and the ethical implications of artificial intelligence.
