BAIFF 2025 Cinematic Singularity Award - In the near future, emotions are treated as diseases, and every citizen is implanted with a neural system called NIRVANA to maintain emotional stability. Noah, a psychiatrist working at the heart of this system, encounters Mirae, a high-risk patient known as “the woman who went mad trying to save the world.” Through her cryptic words, Noah begins to rediscover long-forgotten emotions—and fragments of truth. Meanwhile, Zola, a janitor and secret member of a resistance group, is covertly collecting emotional data from Noah and Mira in preparation to dismantle the system. Using his insider access, Noah triggers a disruption at the system’s core, but a final confrontation with the system’s creator—the hospital director—leads the story into a tragic spiral.

BAIFF 2025 Live Action Award - After twenty years of silence, Sophie meets with her mother Eva – a person who was once her father. This intimate encounter in the stuffy apartment of a ruined tenement becomes a confrontation with the past, pain, and questions about abandonment and acceptance. The film, in the convention of poetic auteur cinema, constitutes a technological and artistic experiment – generative AI tools have replaced the physical film camera here, capturing the world and emotions of the protagonists. It is a story about silence that can scream, and about a moment when one unexpected event can change everything, revealing a truth more painful than years of separation. Awards & Recognition: Winner – Beyond Border IFF 2025 (Best AI Generated Film), Winner – Reale Film Festival 2025 (Best Super Short), Official Selection – BAIFF Venice 2025, Seoul International AIFF 2025, AI Film Awards Venice 2025, Nominee – Digital Griffix Film Awards 2026.
