Ava
A fragmented and emotional awakening unfolds as a synthetic being recalls past lives filled with pain, questioning its purpose, memories, and rebirth in a world where suffering was part of its design—but forgetting was supposed to be the escape.
From the Creator:
As Ava is brought back to life, memories resurface, revealing a haunting truth.
_________________________________________
Ava was entirely created with AI tools. The synthetic film envisions the sinister side of a future where artificial humans became a part of our society. What began as an experiment testing out the boundaries of AI filmmaking soon led to an ethical question, blurring the line between this fictional story and the creative process itself.
The power to conjure a digital human likeness, to place them in any situation we want, is fascinating yet unsettling. As it becomes easier and easier to mirror reality with artificial visuals, how does this shift our responsibilities as filmmakers?
A film used to be the sum of so many different people's ideas, views on the world, and personal and cultural backgrounds. This is what grounds it. It’s exciting that we will all be able to tell our own stories, but it also places an awful lot of power in our hands.
