DIGITAL DETOX

DIGITAL DETOX

2026 • 8 min • Italy
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…

Otsukare Gasa お疲れ傘 - Ai Immersion in Tokyo

2026 • 3 min • France
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.

Ωmega One: of direct(((ive)))s, once removed

2026 • 10 min • United States, Brazil
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.

An orphan in the slum scrapes by collecting plastic waste. Inside his shabby hut, he drifts into a hallucination: plastic bags morph into an elephant (symbolizing ideals), a cat (embodying maternal warmth and comfort), and a dog (standing for paternal loyalty and courage). They carry him flying over cities, playgrounds and forests, letting him encounter endless warmth and beauty. As the fantasy fades with the sunset, a thin plastic sheet settles gently over his body in cold reality. This imaginary flight is the last tenderness bestowed upon him by suffering.

Pillow Men

Pillow Men

2026 • 5 min • China, Not Specified
Pillow Men is a short music video steeped in a dark, absurdist aesthetic. In a world governed by the Pillow System, people voluntarily don white square-shaped pillows, surrendering their consciousness to an AI system. Under the guise of benefiting humanity, the system distills individual skills, creativity, and emotions into replaceable tapes—archived and ready for deployment at any moment. The protagonist, a lone dissenter who refuses the pillow, is marked as a depreciated asset by the system, hunted, captured, and subjected to forced assimilation. She breaks free, sabotages the system's power core, and triggers a cascading collapse. Yet when she stands on an overpass looking down at the city, she discovers that those who had briefly awakened have, in the end, all made the same choice: to take it off or not. The film culminates in a solitary vocal performance amid a torrential storm—a modern fable about freedom, control, and the haunting question: Is blankness also a crime? All visuals in this film are AI-generated. Every stage of the production was handled by a single person.
