""The Trouble with Being Born" is a science fiction film that tells the story of Elli, an android who lives with a man she considers her father. Together, they enjoy the summer, swimming and having fun every day. She shares her memories and anything else the man programs her to remember. Memories that mean everything to him, but mean nothing to her. The movie is described as "the story of a machine and the ghosts we carry within us". There are clear inspirations from famous tales and movies such as "Pinocchio" and Steven Spielberg's "A.I.". For those who like both works mentioned and science fiction that ponder the meaning of life, it is a great choice, which renews the theme for its time with a reflective, introspective and also darker and harder narrative."
