Forced to work in an internment camp, Kalbinur Sidik offers a rare testimony on the persecution of the Uyghur people by the Chinese state. By confronting her account with official propaganda, Eyes of the Machine lays bare the mechanisms of a system of surveillance and repression that extends into the private sphere, aiming at cultural erasure and the systematic persecution of the Uyghur people.
