In a shadowed workshop, a compact robot engineer uses a long-handled brass key to wind the dorsal clockwork spring of a hulking tin-and-chrome automaton. Shot on Kodak Tri-X 5233 with a wide 25mm Cooke Kinic lens, the 1950s sci-fi parody frame plays its low-key nocturnal lighting for deadpan comedy, with coarse silver grain and ink-black crushed shadows swallowing the laboratory corners.
