When AI Nannies Go Bad Indie Sci-Fi film CC Starring Jewel Staite (“Firefly”) Is A Brilliant Short Of Realistic Proportions Diana Marsh, November 19, 2019November 19, 2019 Is this the real life? Is it just an AID (Artificial Intelligence Device) that’s lost its mind and living in its own fantasy? Jewel Staite stars as CC, a robot nanny who develops a conscience and independent thought much to the horror of her employers. Photo courtesy of Gunsmoke & Sky We’ve watched countless movies since way back when that considers and explores the ramifications of technology going rouge with mixed results. DUST, the sci-fi branch of indie promo Gunsmoke&Sky, has a winner on their hands with CC, a sci-fi short that details an evening at home when a robot nanny decides she would be a better parent to Adelaide, the child she was hired to care for, rather than Adeliad’s own mom Lena, with less than stellar results and a possible disagreeable moment with a sharp object. Don’t argue with someone, or something, who’s faster than sober you, much less drunk you. A lesson I learned in a bar in Indianapolis one foggy New Years’ Eve but that’s another story. Photo courtesy of Gunpowder&Sky Of course you have the company who hired CC out to be confused as to why she malfunctioned and of course, you have their PR machine trying to spin it but damn if there isn’t one hell of a plot twist coming for you at the end. The bottom line? This is a brilliantly done short that’s less than 15 minutes long and completely worth your time. I’ve reviewed so many movies that if they had shortened their film length and put this kind of editing and edge into it instead of overblown graphics, the world would have heard their message far more loudly than what they put out.
