Random Access explores the concept of accessing data at any address and instantly, akin to random access memory (RAM). It reflects how we process memory in the digital age. Set in Guiyang, a mountainous city hosting major data infrastructures, including Asia’s first iCloud data center and the FAST telescope, the film speculates on the experience of the cloud world. The story unfolds after the city’s central data center crashes and reboots, following a fictional narrative of the second day.
