‘The Factory’ conjures a world that is deliberately sterile, marked by the absolute control of its beings, and their thoughts and existence. An ‘Overseer’ watches upon newborns, ensuring that they are aptly educated in this world’s way of life which leaves no room for deviation from the fixed order of things.
As they move from one stage of development to another, still barely coming to terms with this newly formed life of theirs, tools of indoctrination are ready to snuff out any and all illusions of free will, and instead feed them ready-made ideas that are most beneficial to the functioning of the said society.
The film invokes a dystopian world of strange beings, and yet, the ideas that mold this world are no different from those that shape our very own lived reality. The animation and its coupling with storytelling, though borrowing from past iconic pieces of art, is unique and individual in expression, and therefore manages to tie all the various components together smoothly.
