Barat telah ‘mewariskan’ teknologi kepada masyarakat-masyarakat lokal di tanah-tanah bekas jajahan mereka. Namun, Sang Tuan peradaban maju itu lupa mewariskan metode tepat guna tentang teknologi itu, dan karenanya seperti dengan sengaja membiarkan malpraktik atas mesin-mesin kemajuan itu menjadi biang petaka di wilayah-wilayah tradisional. Pesan filem ini mengingatkan kembali akan buah jahaman proyek alih modernitas di negeri-negeri pasca kolonial dengan menyisakan masalah-masalah moral dan etika: Dekolonisasi telah menimbulkan akibat yang sama dengan masa keemasan kolonial itu sendiri. Filem ini merupakan versi pendek dari filem cerita panjang berjudul sama karya sutradara Joāo Viana.

[/column] [column type=”1/3″ last=”1″ class=””]The West has ‘inherited’ technology to local societies in the lands of their former colonies. However, the Master from advanced civilization forgets to bequeath appropriate method about technology itself, and therefore like allowing deliberately such malpractice on those advanced machines to be the main disaster in the more traditional territories. The message in this film recalls the misfortune of shifting modernity project in post-colonial countries, leaving issues about moral and ethics: Decolonization has led to the same result with the golden age of colonial itself. This film is a short version of a feature film of the same title, directed by Joâo Viana.
