Description
Technology is supposed to connect us and make life easier, but how do we remain responsible when technology makes it easy to distance ourselves from humanity?
Synopsis:
A man traverses his life, all the while connected religiously to his smartphone.
He ignores people, traffic, signs, and interpersonal interaction.
Often he puts himself and others in harm's way as a result of his attention to his phone.
Sometimes, he uses two phones at once.
His devotion to his phone completely unplugs him from 'real life.'
