Lý Trang’s debut short film ‘Sisyphus’s Cat’ takes off as the starting point of the search for a lost pet across parallel universes. In the memory of the author’s dead cat, Trang represented her effort to look for the cat through the idea of chasing immortality and escaping death. She “cheated” on death by transferring her soul to the future, where people live inside the body of nonstop-working servers and no one can die. When she succeeded, the author’s mission had become her own forced manual labor, and anything else she does for the purpose of earning for a living has become an endless task in this immortal world. The author thus poses one question, maybe two: “Is she going through her punishment like Sisyphus? Does immortality come together with freedom’s responsibility?”
