Summary

Ada imagines how eradicating invasive species would impact our ecosystems. Who decides which species, and how many are too many?--This is episode 5 of the animated series, “Ada.” This 5-episode narrative follows the young library assistant Ada as she juggles two worlds: her daily mundane reality and the future she vividly imagines for all humanity. Traveling through her visions of potential futures, Ada grapples with the ethical and social implications of new technologies and how they could shape the world.Written by Elizabeth Cox, directed by Elizabeth Cox & Kirill Yeretsky.
