Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The film lands squarely in the 'EGO' discourse of the late 2010s — when tech bros kept announcing AI girlfriends and women kept saying 'hard pass.' Turner seems to be asking: what if she could actually tell you no?
At 20 minutes, this technically qualifies as a 'short' — though the secondhand embarrassment lasts significantly longer.
