The Aerial
Running time: 90 mins
In a city without words, the one with ?The Voice? holds the key.
In a wintry metropolis in the year X, the merciless Mr. TV rules. The whole city is without a voice and he has monopolized word and image. People watch TV and eat TV meals produced by Mr. TV. The diabolical madman is working on a sinister plan with a dangerous hypnotic machine that operates through the TV to ensure that all life will be subjected to him forever. To achieve this, he kidnaps the only one who still has ?the voice??a stunningly beautiful singer. The only ones who can save the city are ?The Inventor? and his family. Together, they must find the one thing that can stop Mr. TV and save the city from complete silence.
In a highly stylized film that draws on film noir and German Expressionism, Argentinean writer/director Esteban Sapir uses the vital language of image to create an enchanting fairytale about the power of the human voice.
