AUN: The Beginning and the End of All Things
When looking for alternative energy sources, the Japanese scientist Sekai tragically dies. Twenty years later the Brazilian mathematician Euclides continues his research. The lack of an essential component won't allow a breakthrough. Only AUN, Sekai's son, seems to hold the key to protect mankind from self-destruction. In the aftermath of the nuclear tragedy in Fukushima the film appears like a prophecy. AUN's dream-like images, complemented by music from Christian Fennesz and Ryuichi Sakamoto, lead into a fantastic and exciting world, full of brightness and darkness of life.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a dense metaphor of scientific pursuit as spiritual pilgrimage, relying on visual poetry and a minimalist narrative. It explores the liminal space between technology, ecology, and human destiny, where every detail carries symbolic weight.
What lingers after the final frame is a haunting question about legacy and sacrifice. The viewer is left to piece together the fragile connections between a father's vision and a son's inheritance. — MovieFinder Editorial
