Docuseek | I Am Here

A mysterious traveller journeys across space and time in search of the origin of the universe, life, and God. Eventually finding himself alone in the dying light of an aging cosmos, he arrives at a devastating realization. Yet the world continues to spin.Through sharp modernist shapes and a riveting score by composer duo Menalon, I Am Here takes a curious and contemplative approach to dark and complex themes like the nature of time and consciousness. Directed by Oscar®-shortlisted animator Eoin Duffy and featuring the voice acting of Nicholas Campbell (Da Vinci's Inquest, Goon), I Am Here is a thoughtful and open-ended exploration of existence itself.

00:00:02.708 --> 00:00:05.667
[♪♪♪]

00:00:37.208 --> 00:00:39.583
I am here.

00:00:42.041 --> 00:00:47.207
My journey has taken...

00:00:47.208 --> 00:00:50.999
some time.

00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:54.166
I have outlived the stars.

00:00:56.417 --> 00:00:59.833
I bore witness...

00:00:59.834 --> 00:01:03.165
to the end of life.

00:01:03.166 --> 00:01:05.749
[sighing]

00:01:05.750 --> 00:01:10.207
The heavens above
are all but gone.

00:01:10.208 --> 00:01:18.208
And with them, my life\'s work
has concluded.

00:01:20.291 --> 00:01:26.416
The accumulative knowledge
of countless worlds

00:01:26.417 --> 00:01:31.083
gathered, documented.

00:01:31.834 --> 00:01:35.791
As you see,
I traverse the cosmos

00:01:35.792 --> 00:01:39.290
fuelled by one goal,

00:01:39.291 --> 00:01:45.791
a goal which has taken me
to this place.

00:01:45.792 --> 00:01:52.541
The collective consciousness
of all life that has ever been

00:01:52.542 --> 00:01:57.541
has taken me to this place!

00:01:57.542 --> 00:01:59.457
Here!

00:01:59.458 --> 00:02:02.916
To meet you!

00:02:02.917 --> 00:02:09.875
To ask you so, so many things!

00:02:11.208 --> 00:02:13.417
But you...

00:02:18.375 --> 00:02:22.290
you are not here.

00:02:22.291 --> 00:02:25.290
[sighing]

00:02:25.291 --> 00:02:28.333
You were never here.

00:02:30.834 --> 00:02:35.541
I alone...

00:02:35.542 --> 00:02:39.291
occupy...

00:02:42.708 --> 00:02:45.583
the darkness.

00:03:08.208 --> 00:03:10.041
Gerry!

00:03:11.333 --> 00:03:13.375
Gerry!

00:03:15.417 --> 00:03:16.582
Gerry!

00:03:16.583 --> 00:03:17.874
Yeah, what\'s up?

00:03:17.875 --> 00:03:19.999
He\'s back again!

00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:20.834
What?

00:03:20.835 --> 00:03:22.541
That guy is back.

00:03:22.542 --> 00:03:25.959
Oh. I got it.

00:03:30.542 --> 00:03:31.999
How we doing, Frank?

00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:33.999
You know you can\'t be in here.

00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:36.499
Come on, let\'s take it outside.

00:03:36.500 --> 00:03:39.792
Come on. Let\'s go.

00:03:41.208 --> 00:03:43.625
Ooh, watch it.

00:04:01.625 --> 00:04:02.625
Next!

00:04:02.626 --> 00:04:05.250
Next person, please!
