Berlinale Shorts 2022

Machines are checking and sorting nature in an industrial greenhouse. Cameras enable the robots to do their work.

Products must be up to standard so that they are market-ready for the consumer. Only at night, when everything is asleep, does unexpected life move in and take control.
