Yoshinao Satoh's PAPERS (1991) is a hypnotic, avant-garde animated short film using thousands of newspaper clippings, blueprints, and Japanese characters to explore the fragmentation of media, information overload, and the essence of humanity in a pre-digital age, featuring a minimalist score by Steve Reich and a central figure "1" representing "people". It's a prescient meditation on how human stories and records get lost and reformed in mass media, anticipating the digital deluge.
