The Human Surge 3 + Q&A
CinemaAttic is pleased to bring a full retrospective of Eduardo “Teddy” Williams’ work to Scotland in February 2025. This screening at GFT will be followed by a Q&A with Williams.
Teddy Williams’ works challenge viewers to see the world through a different lens, encouraging contemplation and emotional engagement. By focusing on often overlooked subjects and employing innovative techniques, Williams has carved out a unique space in contemporary cinema.
The Human Surge 3 pushes the boundaries of genre and explores how human essence can be portrayed. The film weaves a tapestry of interconnected stories spanning continents. The plot follows a diverse cast of characters as they navigate a world on the brink of technological singularity. From a young hacker in Tokyo to a climate refugee in Miami, the film's narrative threads converge in unexpected and profound ways, challenging our perceptions of time, space, and human connection.
Williams' characters are not mere plot devices but fully realised individuals that reflect the complexities of the human experience. The protagonist, Aiko, a Japanese AI researcher, embodies the struggle between technological progress and ethical responsibility. Her journey intertwines with that of Carlos, a Cuban data analyst, whose story highlights the global disparities in access to technology.
The Human Surge 3 is a mirror reflecting our hopes, fears, and potential as a global society. It challenges us to think deeply about our relationship with technology and each other. As the credits roll, we're left with a profound sense of our interconnectedness and the power of human resilience in the face of change.
