Uncanny (2015) & Zoe (2018): Love and Androids

In this episode of Journey Through Sci-Fi, James and Matt continue their Artificial Intelligence series by exploring two modern films about relationships between humans and artificial beings. First we examine Uncanny (2015), a psychological sci-fi drama exploring whether a highly advanced android can truly pass as human. Then we explore Zoe (2018), a near-future story about synthetic partners designed to create perfect romantic relationships. Together these films explore one of science fiction's most fascinating questions: What happens when artificial intelligence becomes capable of love? Journey Through Sci-Fi explores the history of science-fiction cinema one subgenre at a time, examining the films and ideas that shaped the genre.
