[AI film] The Human Orbit
An inner journey to find a life trajectory aligned with one's own gravity, told through physics metaphors. This short film, submitted to the Higgs Field AI Film Festival, delivers the message that everyone shines brightest when following their own unique path.
the weight of existence I carry grows lighter, and in that moment of emptying, when everything of me scatters — that is when I meet the horizon of peace.
1 Film Theme: Human Orbit
Everyone must find their own path and live in their own way.Human Orbit is a short film about an inner journey. It uses physics as a metaphor to help us find the life path that matches our own gravity.Key Points
- Unique Gravity: Planets follow gravity. People also have a unique "gravity" that matches their size and weight.
- Not Automatic: Finding your own orbit does not happen by itself.
- A Brave Choice: You must let go of your familiar past self. You must step into the great flow of life to meet a new self.
2 The narration in the movie
The bird fights its way out of the egg — Demian
This is Planet C-Falb, planet of gravity.
One day, I decided to leave this place.
This place where heavy gravity pulls me down.
But it’s a vast, open sea. Where should I go?
Fortunately, space has no direction.
Which means I can go anywhere.
And yet, at the same time, that means chaos.
Everything begins with me, with my own choice,
but that doesn’t mean I can expect the outcome I want.
Everyone is living out their own life,
but how many actually know where they’re going?
Expectation, fear, wounds, regret, disappointment —
within them, the self grows bloated.
One’s own belief hardens into a solid shell,
and over time, becomes a blind faith.
“Amplification of the self” — that’s what I call it.
To be without direction is already to be dead.
Nothing but a long procession of death continues.
When I let go of myself and surrender to the greater flow,
I can find the path I must take.
A voice calling from somewhere.
An encounter with an unfamiliar self I never knew.
Following only the signs within me,
groping my way through the darkness inside,
the veil surrounding me slowly thins,
the weight of existence I carry grows lighter,
and in that moment of emptying, when everything of me scatters —
that is when I meet the horizon of peace.
That is my orbit.
There, I will be born again.
