'After Yang is a subtle, tender perspective on artificial intelligence that is a rarity for modern science fiction. Director Kogonada’s sophomore film explores a subtly futuristic world where artificial intelligence is commonplace.' | Maxwell Rabb
Within this subdued vision of the future, Jake and Kyra purchase a lifelike android, Yang , to give their adopted daughter Mika a sibling. The beginning of the film slowly reveals the inner tensions within the family, unfurling when Yang malfunctions and Jake is tasked with bringing his animatronic son back to life. The film voyages into the uncanny valley, and through Yang’s eyes, the audience is confronted with the passage of time, grief, and transience.
In the opening sequence, the film shows the principal characters participating in an uncharacteristically energetic synchronized virtual dance battle. Once mesmerized by the absurdity of this future society, the dance sequence abruptly ends and the viewer is jolted back into the daze-like world. With slow moves, Kogonada produces a powerful film that runs its course with restraint, but that is not a disadvantage.
