Does technology make our lives easier? Audrey works away at her computer and she encounters a problem. Nothing seems to help: neither a co-worker's advice, nor the user manual, nor the help line. Stuck on hold, Audrey dreams of how simple life must have been before the age of technology. This animated tale, with a real animal soundtrack, makes for a funny and witty dig at how little we've really evolved. A film without words.

Ages 13 to 17
School subjects
Ah, technology! It makes our lives easier, but can poison us as well. Ask students to consider the impacts of technology on our lives. Challenge them to avoid using their home phone, computer or mobile phone at home and at school for a whole day, and to note the times they would have needed them most and the times they had to find alternatives. Expect plenty of comical moments and human contact.
