Miloš Tomić
O robovima i robotima
Serbia 2016 / 3’
animation

An animation based on radio speeches in Belgrade by a Yugoslav professor at the University of Belgrade who urged his students to think for themselves and to form their own identities so as to avoid becoming the eponymous slaves and robots. Of the two evils, he asserted, it would be better to be a slave than a robot.
