Making of AN
An is a short film created as a result of the Creative Code for Animation and Video specialization at
CENTRO.
An tells the story of an android who uses technology to alleviate its loneliness. It serves as a
metaphor for individualism and the inherent human need for companionship, both in a sensory and social
context. Ultimately, when direct human connection is lacking, the character seeks a solution with the
aid of technology, echoing the theme of social distancing prevalent in our current pandemic era.
We live in a society that fulfills various needs through the digital realm, making it plausible that
technological evolution could one day satisfy these sensory needs without leaving home.
The issue with loneliness, however, is that even with the best technology, things can go awry. What
happens when there's no one there to support you?
