The Old Lady and the Eternity

“Everybody left to the Ark, except Josefa Centeno.”

Josefa Centeno, an 86-year-old woman, refuses to be uploaded to a digital afterlife, facing the consequences of defying the authoritarian regime. Built around archival footage, the director re-imagines his grandmother's life as a sci-fi fable about love, resistance and what it means to choose your own ending.
