Electric Mom begins after a fatal accident: Noah brings his wife Hannah back home near a wild forest, but she returns altered in a biomimetic synthetic body. Her memories seem intact, yet her body is optimized for performance, constant attention, and caregiving within the family. Set in a quiet domestic space that is not fully sealed, the film follows Hannah as she remains permanently connected to her surroundings, registering the house, machines, garden, and bordering organisms as a saturated system that grows increasingly restless, until she finally decides to listen and to leave. 

A dead oak in the garden becomes a fixed point, unlike Hannah it has not been resurrected, introducing an irreversible limit into a story built on continuity. As Noah remains silent and evasive, Hannah begins to sense gaps in her narrative, questioning whether what was preserved is truly her or a functional version designed for use. The work traces her shift from engineered care toward a need for agency and an exit from the role she was rebuilt to inhabit.
