The gospel according to Tauba and Primal
The Gospel According to Tauba and Primal" is part of the rebellion of the Tauba character with the violence and urban chaos of the metropolis where he lives. As an alternative, he creates and realizes the project of an ideal city, a fortress-city robot. Moved by envy, Primal develops its own version of the robot-city of Tauba. The short is an allegory about the contemporary confrontation between two antagonistic perspectives on life and society, where issues such as radicalism, inability to dialogue and segregation of the world divided by walls are exposed.
