Because of its intricate ambivalence among the natural vs. the industrial, as well as the soulful genre mixing of documentary and choreography, which takes the audience seemingly into the minds of the characters, the jury decided to give the main award to the unique cinematic vision displaying the compassionate life stories of hardworking lashers, YOU CAN`T AUTOMATE ME by Katarina Jazbec.
The phrase “You Can’t Automate Me” encapsulates the crux of the relationship between the human and the machine in the singularly mechanised environment of a seaport. Through the introduction of elements of dance Katarina Jazbec positions front and centre the human body and the collective spirit of a daily life, marked with hard work, routine, and the precariousness of life itself.
