Can you live without your phone? In ‘Disconnect Me’, Australian filmmaker Alex Lykos delves into that question.

Can you live without your phone? In this innovative documentary, Disconnect Me, Australian filmmaker Alex Lykos examines the ever-pervasive role of technology in our lives by disconnecting from his phone for 30 days. How will he and those around him react? What will the effects be on his life? Will he be happier or unhappier?

Along the way, he investigates the concerning impacts of smartphones and social media on our health and behaviour through a series of eye-opening interviews, and in a fresh interactive twist, encourages audiences to engage with the film in real time using their own devices.

Following official selection at the prestigious Cinefest Oz Film Festival, and the NH Doc Film Festival in Connecticut USA last year, this dynamic and revealing feature promises not only to entertain, but provides an intriguing opportunity for audiences to re-examine their own social behaviour and interaction with the real world around them.

 

Disconnect Me is available to buy & rent on digital platforms from 1st April
