Drone warriors - Autonomous weapon systems and the wars of the future

Overview

As the war on Ukraine rages on, drone technology is advancing rapidly — and fundamentally changing the battlefield.

Does it matter whether death is caused by human hands or by a machine? Can we limit this technology to the front lines, or will it seep into everyday life? The film explores how tech drones are changing war.
