About This Movie

World Brain is an intriguing blend of documentary and science fiction, crafted by the duo Gwenola Wagon and Stéphane Degoutin. The film operates on this essayistic level, weaving through the complexities and paradoxes of the internet—like a deep dive into a digital ocean. Its tone is contemplative yet provocative, pushing you to reflect on the utopian ideologies we often associate with technology. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing you to absorb the visuals and ideas fully, and there’s a striking use of practical effects that enhance its themes of connectivity and isolation. The combination of the interactive website with the film deepens the experience, making it a distinctive exploration of our online lives.
