Le bout du rouleau tells a tale. The tale of a woman who take language in her own hands in order to tell her own story that a bogus artificial intelligence presented as an outdated technology (an overhead projector) has confiscated. The woman’s attempts at narration is hindered by the paternalist machine projecting her story in her place.
