Small Talk

In a decaying, neon-lit city where automation has quietly replaced nearly every human job, Jack, a weary cab driver, clings to the last traces of humanity the only way he knows how… through small talk. His retro-futuristic cab becomes a confessional booth for the displaced. A teacher, a mechanic, a doctor, each passenger shares how artificial intelligence stripped them of their livelihoods. What begins as idle chatter deepens into a haunting meditation on identity, purpose, and the fragile dignity of human connection in a world that no longer needs humans.
