About 'real' love in the era of AI – Benke returns with a classic love story! In Fredrik 'Benke' Rydman's interpretation of Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet, he places the classic into a world where we satisfy our need for love using AI. With an AI partner, nothing is difficult and every desire is fulfilled. In an age devoid of genuine love, hatred has room to flourish. When Romeo and Juliet meet, something completely different is ignited—an experience foreign to them both, an intoxicating love that hurts and causes real pain. But what if she isn't real? What if the love itself is artificial? Then he no longer wishes to live. His love for her torments him, and he must find out if she is real. Could killing her be the only way? Everyone knows how the tragedy ends, but do you know what real love truly feels like? Running time: 75 minutes.
