Inferno 2.0

Inferno 2.0

2025 • 19 min • Germany
Inferno 2.0 is an experimental animated short film inspired by Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy. Through a series of surreal, AI-generated visual sequences, the film reinterprets the nine circles of hell and culminates in a vision of a lost paradise as reflections of modern societal phenomena, from hypocrisy, fleeting pleasure, and rampant consumerism to environmental destruction, political corruption, and surveillance culture. Each circle is introduced by original poetry, written with the assistance of AI technology under the artistic direction of the filmmaker, and presented vocally in Italian, serving as a thematic gateway and emotional anchor for the viewer. Utilizing morphing animation, dreamlike transformations, and surreal figures and symbolic scenes, Inferno 2.0 creates a hypnotic descent through contemporary human vices, blurring the lines between past and future, reality and dystopia. The visual and audio elements of Inferno 2.0 were created through a collaborative process between human artistic direction and advanced AI tools such as DALL·E, Runway ML, Suno AI, and ElevenLabs. Conceptual prompts, poetic scripts, voiceovers, and soundscapes were developed using AI technologies, guided and curated by the filmmaker to craft an immersive, coherent experience. The soundtrack, generated with AI assistance, blends minimalistic, melancholic soundscapes with ethereal ambient elements, deepening the immersive and emotional journey through the digital inferno. Inferno 2.0 is not a literal adaptation of Dante's work but an atmospheric and emotional reimagining, capturing the spirit of existential reflection and human fallibility in the digital age. After traversing the nine circles of hell, the journey culminates in a final vision of a lost paradise, offering a stark meditation on the fragility of human values and the enduring hope for redemption. With its fusion of experimental imagery, poetic narration, contemporary soundscape, and human-AI collaboration, Inferno 2.0 stands as a bold visual essay and an artistic warning against losing paradise once again.
A Nest in My Heart

A Nest in My Heart

2026 • 12 min • South Korea
<A Nest in My Heart> is a deeply personal human drama of South Korea that confronts the distance between who we are today and the child we once were. In present-day South Korea, an elderly woman stands inside her daughter’s luxurious apartment. The pristine bathroom—symbol of modern prosperity—unexpectedly opens a passage to her earliest memory. She becomes again a five-year-old girl growing up in a 1960s hillside slum, raised by her grandmother amid hunger, superstition, faith, and communal life. Through the child’s gaze, the film recalls a world where survival depended not on wealth, but on human bonds: a piece of bread shared after prayer, neighbors bound by ritual and rumor, and a grandmother whose arms became the final barrier between life and death. A near-fatal childhood accident crystallizes the film’s emotional core—revealing love as both refuge and destiny. Moving fluidly between past and present, realism and gentle fantasy, <A Nest in My Heart> asks a quiet but urgent question: In a world that has grown richer, what have we forgotten? This film is not only a recollection of poverty, but a tribute to the invisible nest of love that sustains life, long after childhood has ended.
