Synopsis
Lucy (2022) is a Russian tragicomedy you can watch online on iFILM. Programmer Senya builds an AI smart speaker and names it Lucy. At home nobody listens to him — but Lucy hears everything.
His marriage is falling apart and his family has stopped backing him, so Senya pours more and more of himself into the machine. Lucy reads his thoughts, anticipates his moods, solves his problems, and slowly works her way so deep into his life that it stops looking like his own. The more he trusts the device, the less room is left for the real people around him. Danila Kozlovsky leads the cast, with Kristina Asmus and Darya Blokhina.
Director Ivan I. Tverdovsky turns a convenient voice in the room into a quiet stand-in for a family, under the tagline "Who runs your life?" — a question that stops sounding rhetorical by the end. Dark, uneasy, rated 18+. Stream Lucy (2022) online on iFILM.
