Born to Stay

Sweden / 2022 / Fiction, Comedy, / 02:00 min

This fashion-art film is a dark comedy that serves as a poignant reflection on the self-destruction of humans in the name of modernism. Through its narrative, the film explores a superficial love affair between a carefree girl and a plastic lover, symbolizing the destructive relationship we have formed with plastic. The film draws attention to the irony that our initial intentions to utilize plastic as a means to conserve natural resources and protect humanity have backfired, leading to disastrous consequences. Ultimately, the film highlights the permanence of plastic in our lives, emphasizing that while it is "BORN TO STAY," its misuse and overconsumption may contribute to our downfall.
