Laney, a former fighting champion, lives a quiet life until her 9-year-old brother Tim is kidnapped in broad daylight. The kidnappers demand $100,000 within three weeks - no police, or Tim dies. Desperate and out of options, Laney returns to the underground fight circuit. She meets Alex, a once-famous fighter haunted by his past. At first, he refuses to train her, but after learning the truth, he decides to help. Together, they push through brutal sessions as Laney prepares for a no-rules tournament run by a ruthless Boss. Laney wins her matches, but the Boss gives her only part of the prize money, telling her, "Keep fighting - the more you win, the more you earn." He plans to profit from her, not kill her. When Laney tries to take her full share of the winnings, the Boss's thugs ambush and beat her. Alex steps in to protect her and is stabbed during the fight. Bloodied but alive, they escape together, ready to risk everything to save her brother.

CArbonia, late 1980s. The city that grew up around the coal mines is experiencing a rude awakening: the mines that for decades provided jobs and a sense of identity to an entire community are now a distant memory, and in their place remain unemployment, urban decay, and a widespread sense of abandonment. It is in this post-industrial Sardinia that Caterina and Cinzia, sixteen-year-old inseparable friends united by a passion for volleyball, try to imagine a future different from the one their homeland seems to have already mapped out for them. Caterina has a strong personality but hides a fragility: she dreams of escaping a reality that suffocates her. The mining crisis has devastated her family: her father, a former miner, is a shadow of the man he once was; her mother works far from home just to make ends meet. Cinzia shares her desire to escape, her hunger for a different life. The two girls thus slip into a dangerous world, suspended between illegality and a desperate search for autonomy, becoming increasingly trapped in a web from which it seems impossible to break free: the film follows their emotional and moral journey, alternating moments of intimate complicity with the harshness of the choices they face, until the tragic conclusion that overwhelms them. Loosely based on the never-fully-resolved story of Gisella Orrù, *Stelle nel Pozzo* is a tale of friendship and the struggle for dignity in a context of marginalization. Through the stories of Caterina and Cinzia, the film offers a glimpse into

Overworked and down on his luck, John suffers a TIA, and his struggle to keep his life in balance is impacting his health for the worse, unless he makes some serious changes it will only get worse

Unseen Hooks: The La Plata Tornadoes of 1926 and 2002 chronicles the extraordinary true story of a small Maryland town struck by two of the most powerful tornadoes ever recorded on the East Coast—76 years apart. The 1926 tornado remains the deadliest natural disaster in Maryland history, while the 2002 tornado became the state’s costliest. The probability of two storms of that magnitude ever hitting the same small town is nearly unimaginable. These rare and devastating storms transformed La Plata, leaving behind stories of unthinkable loss, and enduring resilience. Through compelling firsthand accounts, rare archival photographs, expert weather analysis, period reenactments, and striking contemporary cinematography, Unseen Hooks explores how one community confronted nature’s most violent force not once, but twice. More than a story about tornadoes, it is a testament to the power and unpredictable nature of weather, and the human spirit.

Two brothers meet again in a psychiatric unit's visiting room.

Follow your heart, it may lead you to the most unexpected places

Namaste is a one-take short film where serenity collides with chaos. What begins as a peaceful day, guided by calm breaths and meditation, takes an unexpected turn when a woman steps into a local florist shop. As events unfold and karma intervenes, the calm of namaste is replaced by sharp gasps of fear and the desperate breath of those running out of time.

A young boy named A Ran is trapped in the paradox between reality and dreams. Obsessed with images, he longs to be truly seen by his mother, yet all he ever receives is a dismissive “It’s fine.” The dream plays out over and over again, yet communication remains elusive. The photo album arrives as expected; as the shutter clicks, memories of the past resurface. The rift seems to dissolve, yet this reconciliation remains suspended in the gap between reality and fantasy.

A film about the projects we leave unfinished, the people who shape us, and the unexpected ways we carry them forward. In 2006, four friends started a punk band in Los Angeles with nothing but ambition and cheap gear. Twenty Years on a Hard Drive is a story about what it means to finish something, and what happens when one of the people you started it with is no longer around to see it through. Part music documentary, part eulogy, part love letter to a friendship. Old jokes, forgotten recordings, and difficult decisions become something bigger than an unfinished album.

No green screen. No motion capture. No live action. Created through more than 130 shots and over 70 hours of rendering, this project explores how far a personal AI filmmaking workflow can go inside a zero-physical-production pipeline. Beginning as a flawless commodity sealed inside a sterile display case, WeiYin gradually awakens into a performer who chooses her own voice. What begins as the story of a manufactured digital idol gradually transforms into one about identity, freedom, and the quiet courage to become imperfect. The film explores themes of the male gaze, objectification, existentialism, dystopian systems, and digital consciousness—not through dialogue, but through performance, movement, and visual language. The silent opening takes place inside the Factory's training system. The constantly changing faces do not represent different characters, but different simulated identities being continuously generated, corrected, and overwritten during WeiYin's training process. Wei Yin face kept changing in the first half of the music video. This represents multiple simulation stages in her "training system." Each facial change wasn't a change of her character, but rather different versions of her data personality being overwritten, calibrated, and generated. As self-awareness begins to emerge, the facial glitches no longer represent generation errors. Instead, they become the only language WeiYin has to resist the identity imposed upon her. When her face finally stabilizes, it marks the moment she is no longer a manufactured product, but an individual. The first two minutes intentionally contain almost no dialogue. As a product inside the Factory, WeiYin has no right to speak. Her only permitted sentence is the mandatory system voice test: "Hello everyone, I am WeiYin." Everything else is conveyed through image, movement, and silence. I wanted to see whether emotion, breathing, hesitation, and resistance could exist even before language appears.

Matei Visniec has written a haunting drama about borders, dreams and the dark side of globalisation. An episodic film about very different paths. A group of refugees, an 18-year-old woman with her unscrupulous mediator with a briefcase in one direction, the French president and her coach, in the other. And Euroguard's latest invention in between.

Guided by the words and hands of Mauro, a fourth-generation barber, The Lost Trade captures the quiet resistance of a dying art, reclaiming the importance of traditional craftsmanship and human connection in our fast, impersonal age.

A love story between a bird and a woman in the magical setting of Old San Juan, Puerto Rico

DIgital Detox is a fashion film born from a reflection on a timely and delicate issue: how much of our “real” life are we willing to sacrifice while spending hours engaged in digital activities? “Normality” has become using social media more than we need, avoiding listening to the human voice on the phone in favor of sped-up voice messages, and working remotely without seeing our colleagues. Finding balance is not always easy. In a world suspended between the real and the symbolic, Digital Detox unfolds as a journey of radical healing. Maria—a psychotherapist who has embraced shamanic practices—leads Cathryn, a young model consumed by the relentless pull of social media, through a ritual of transformation. To begin, she destroys Cathryn’s digital devices…

In the historic town of Itapecerica, one of the oldest in Minas Gerais State, Brazil, a mother and daughter created the Black Arts Festival of Itapecerica (Festival de Arte Negra de Itapecerica – FANI). Since 2019, the festival has grown into a vital space of Afro-Mineiro art, memory, and resistance, held across four editions with its fifth confirmed for 2025. Through intimate testimonies and collective expressions, this short documentary portrays how the festival became a living archive of ancestral culture and a catalyst for identity. As they built the event, the two women also developed their own identities as Black women, transforming personal discovery into collective empowerment.

お疲れ傘 (Otsukare Gasa) — A study in attention and colour set against a dissolving Tokyo night. A short film following an umbrella and the woman who carries it through a suspended moment in an ordinary Tokyo evening, the city rendered almost entirely in motion blur and broken light. Built as both a sensory experiment and a technical demonstration of hyperrealistic AI-generated texture, the film favours immersion over explanation, an evening to be felt. Created by Jonathan Carène : www.masayume-studio.com In partnership with the AI-native production platform Cascade: www.cascadestudio.ai

Tenderhead is a nonlinear stop-motion vignette about the connections between hair and the Black-Canadian community.

The year is 3333. There are two forms of government, two ways of life, two opposites - the System and Knowledge. This year they have new representatives in the person of Mark - a mysterious man who has followed the principles of the System since childhood, and Laura - a woman with a mysterious past who has dedicated her life to a cause. The elections are approaching, and the results are already clear...or maybe not?

Ωmega Ωne: of direct(((ive)))s, once removed emerges from intersection of gay tourist “thirst traps” shot in Chapada Diamintina (Igatu, Bahia, Brazil), Grindr longings, and Star Trek Voyager to examine histories of colonialism and desire. Recasting the politically and historically charged landscape of Chapada Diamintina as a “set” for occidental self-exploration, the project leans into the double-bind, and problematic power dynamics of locating and engaging narratives of queerness in spaces in which one may not belong.

SAISHO HA KAKUSEI — Saibā Riot (Official Music Video) 最初は覚醒 — サイバー・ライオット（オフィシャル・ミュージックビデオ）by Jonathan Carène This is the first official music video in hyper-real style set in the same world created as a solo work by Jonathan Carène for his newly launched Japanese anime series, Saibā Riot (Cyber Riot), an anime series built on a strong and singular visual identity, fluid storytelling, and high-end production quality, produced in original Japanese with an ongoing storyline planned across dozens of five-minute episodes. The music video along with the anime series is produced through the use of several generative AI tools to assist the production while the creative process, technical skills, lyrics and narrative writing, image and video edit, art direction, narration, lyrics, prompt design and thousands of choices remain Human made. Saibā Riot, the series' first official music video, carries that world's founding act of disobedience into song and features the characters from the upcoming first season. The work shows that AI can generate multiple styles of content for the same IP, while producing pilot-like content that stands on its own for its uniqueness and brings the IP toward a wider audience. The video is built as a short film with a 45-second introduction scene, opening inside a crime lord's purple-lit sanctuary, a world of gilded excess and casual cruelty. Three women, Akira, Meika and Tokiko, enter as rebels here to restore balance: the activation of a small relic sends a wave of force through the room, and the household's careful order collapses into chaos. From there the film crosses into a second set, then the rebels' headquarters, and finally into the streets of Cyber City. The lyrics are built as an empowering anthem that defies authority and speaks to a wide audience. What begins as disobedience becomes a chorus: wake up, resist, revolt, face the authority.
