Set in a post-apocalyptic world, long after human beings have disappeared, Stephen Yeun and Kristen Stewart star as facsimiles of a long-gone pair of Instagram influencers, going through the motions of human courtship.

Stephen Yeun and Kristen Stewart spent hours in motion capture suits
Speaking in aQ&Aafter the presentation of their film, directors Sam and Andy Zechero revealed some key details about the film’s production, chiefly how they pitched the story to their leads and what the leads thought about the script. Among the many things that came up was that Stewart and Yeun had to spend a lot of time in motion capture suits. The directors revealed:
“There is an amazing version of the film too, where these guys are in motion capture suits the entire time, which is equally valuable I think, if not more.”
To this, Stewart immediately quipped that it’s “painful” that it is not a part of the film’s final cut. The film incorporates multiple mediums into its final cut, ranging from animation to motion capture to live action, something that has created a film that the directors think is the future of cinema as a medium.

Love Mehas received great reviews so far
While the film has only just been released,Love Mehas already raked in some rave reviews, talking about its direction, story and integration of various mediums into its final cut. Despite being an indie film, the visuals of the film have been termed ‘studio level’ in every aspect, something that has attracted a lot of attention to the film.
The film follows a unique love story, between a satellite functioning after the end of humanity and a buoy floating on a thawing planet. While Stewart and Yeun look nothing like such apparatus, the machinery of the film allows the two robots to appear as they do, going through the motions of a human relationship, something that has been compared to Wall-E and EVE from Pixar’sWall-E.
