Hoezo in KINO

Robots who want to become human, made by two humans who preferred staying robots. For their directing debut, presented in Cannes’ Quinzaine des Réalisateurs, Daft Punk left out their own music entirely: no dialogue, no beat, but plenty of Curtis Mayfield and Brian Eno in a desert borrowed from Tarkovsky. The film asks some patience, but the finale is among the most beautiful things the duo ever made. Seventy minutes you would never finish at home, and will never forget in a cinema. This unique piece of pop history has recently been remastered for the Tribeca Film Festival, and has only be shown there, in Sydney – and now in Rotterdam.

Storyline

Daft Punk’s Electroma is an odyssey of two robots who journey across a mythic American landscape of haunting, surreal beauty on a quest to become human. Their symbolic quest, which takes them from endless two lane highways to small idyllic towns to the arid desert, finds Daft Punk once again resisting conformity and developing new ways to highlight their inventive vision. A silent feature-length film that made its international debut at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival, Electroma will interest Daft Punk fans and film enthusiasts alike. With its breathtaking cinematography, innovative filming techniques, and above all its underlying search for humanity within a dystopian environment, Daft Punk have delivered a film that finds a common thread with their previous work while exploring new horizons as directors of their first feature film.
