I don’t think this film’s aim is to show mechanics replacing organics. This is a story about what is real. The girl had a love for nature, in other words, authenticity. Substance. Beauty. It was the same reason why she fell in love with the man, because what he offered her - a flower, was genuine. But soon she realised they were living in world where nothing is what it seems. People were surrounded by false, superficial things that sometimes was sometimes utterly deceiving. She grew distressed, but the final straw was when her husband threw away the one genuine thing he had given her, symbolised by the flower. She died of a broken heart while her husband, filled with regret, indulged in yet another superficial thing. Recreating his wife’s image in the automaton was his last and ultimate fantasy. What he didn’t realise was that love is not an invention. It’s made.

It's true. You can even tell when the woman looks around the mechanical world she feels trapped because she starts hyperventilating. Everything is an illusional, due to run a certain course, all mechanical, nothing really real.

@vinigirl3182 7 жыл бұрын

I think you have a wonderful interpretation of this film. The only thing I disagree with is at the end, where you said recreating his wife's image was his last and ultimate fantasy. I don't think it was his final fantasy, and I don't think he was happy, as seen by yellow colour and his sad posture and the way he gazes at the genuine flower he kept. I think he created it, because he doesn't know what else to do in a world so full of mechanics that it's basically brainwashed him. But he recognises it doesn't replace his real wife and that something mechanical is nowhere near as good as the real thing.

Two people from contrasting cultures fall in love and marry. He takes her off to his land, which is SOOOO foreign to her way of life. Initially, up in the clouds, she finds it all unique and novel. But after reality sets in, she cherishes the only piece of her old life that she has, the flower. He innocently tosses it out, and something inside her dies. In his love for her, he uses his talents and what he knows to create a new heart for her, a heart that responds to the foreign culture and knows how to thrive therein. An interpretation (for better or worse) from a bride in the process of adapting to a foreign country.

What I learned was that: People and true beauty cannot truly be replaced by technology and even if so they will never be the same, Love is like a living flower and it needs to be taken care of and nourished it can be a hassle, but the outcome is what makes it worth it, Love like a beautiful flower can wither and die if no attention is paid to it

Tinker scene with clockwork heart, That build the world with metal part. With all such glory and all such sight, Can lead the world in utter blight. What the means to love at all? When man can build a maiden thrall? For what's the role without such death? For maiden spewed, with nothing breath.

I finally found my way back to one of my favorite short films. I shared it a while back, but it was difficult to locate it on my facebook. I love how this film brings out a lot of things we should prioritize in life... We definitely take this world for granted. I think the woman to some extent symbolizes mother earth and how fragile nature really is. Her soul is at one with this planet, so as the plant dies, so does she. Without love, care and attention, relationships die and no invention can replace human compassion. Perhaps it also points out what it's like to be so real, in a world where nothing real is valued, which is sad, but seems relevant in todays' society.. Thank you so much for sharing your soul with us!

I guess its the perfect title for the story....! This man, who's a fantastic engineer builds everything with nuts n bolts.... But as the saying goes "Too Good is to Bad", his creativity turns into a cursed disaster - his beloved Wife's death. There in his city, everything was made out of bolts, even the living ones, the undead.... There was nothing natural, infact, the nature was destroyed. All that remained was a City of Junk....! He thought everything could be built. But untill his wife's death who was a lovely women. She was tired of all the bolty nutty crap around her.... He then after her death thinks that he can built her too,. Yes, he did it, but he could not find his wife in it, it was just a machine after-all.... The moral of the Story is "Love can never be invented...."
