Home Again
This film was created during the MIT AI for Filmmaking Hackathon 2024
The film tells the heartfelt story of an elderly man grappling with Alzheimer's. Struggling to remember his home, he finds himself lost in a maze of forgotten memories and disconnected realities. A team of five robot cops, each with their unique capabilities and personalities, step in to assist him. These robot cops help him access and navigate through his "memory clips," digital recordings of his past life. Through a series of heartfelt moments, they help him to reconnect with the home he carries within his heart and memories. The film is a poignant exploration of memory, identity, and the enduring power of the human spirit, underscored by the transformative potential of technology.
