E-Wasteland is a mixed-media experimental film. I'm telling how a modern person is wrapped in data in the electronic wasteland world, empty, indifferent, and at a loss, "no life or death, knowing nothing", she tried to communicate with the machine......Finally she went into nature to find answers, looking for primitive vitality and passionate belief, just as Eliot expressed at the end of The Waste Land: Only hope and faith can bring the wasteland back to life.
I was deeply inspired by Eliot’s poem The Waste Land. The poem reminds me of the digital age in which I am now. Our lives are wrapped by data, bringing people a sense of loneliness, paralyzing people's actions and vulgarity. In the foreseeable future, digital technology is invading our lives at an even more violent speed and devouring our faith. What kind of world is that? Full of bones and dead wood, it is the collapsed London Bridge, the hell of Dante, the electronic wasteland of mental breakdown. What can we believe?
