Little Martians: Dear Human, My Muse
- English (US)
Little Martians are seeds of Earth’s life, unique in their skills and interests. They adapt to many environments, nurturing local life or creating new life forms from existing materials. They communicate through the ‘Imaginarium’, a network of simulations that connects all Little Martians. This virtual realm holds Earth’s memories and imaginations, keeping the planet's legacy alive as they build new lives on other worlds. Theoretically, we are already living inside the Little Martian's imagination. In this expansive narrative, we focus on Verdelis, a Little Martian who resides in a mystic biodome. Verdelis has developed a profound empathy towards humans, feeling a sense of responsibility for the pains and challenges inadvertently imposed upon humanity through the Imaginarium's designs. The story unfolds as Verdelis grapples with the moral implications of their actions, seeking to make amends by reaching out to humanity in a gesture of heartfelt apology.

A ROBOT OF ME
- English (US)
A ROBOT OF ME is a short AI-generated film that plays out like a virtual reincarnation of Andy Warhol in the age of artificial intelligence. In an apparently mundane scene - Andy buying soup in a supermarket - a philosophical daydream begins to unfold. The film echoes his famous quote: “Machines have less problems. I'd like to be a machine, wouldn't you?” and raises the question of how Warhol might engage today with social media, AI, deepfakes, and prompts.

Ancient Works
BAIFF 2025 School Award - "Ancient Works", winner of School Award at BAIFF, is a comical short film that explores with tragic irony how artificial intelligence could rapidly disrupt traditional jobs and the entire world of work. The story centers on a lovely horse who works as a rocking horse for a child who is the company's boss. The horse is bored by his job and the monotony of his daily routine, but this is abruptly interrupted when Cuby AI enters the scene, a sophisticated robot that, thanks to artificial intelligence, can transform into any toy. At this point, an unequal race against time and AI begins, to reinvent himself in other professions, leveraging his skills and abilities. However, artificial intelligence now learns quickly, and no sector is immune. Ultimately, only feelings make humans different and special from machines (the final scene, however, suggests that even this could change). The video is ironic, but also reflects on current issues, such as "the fear that artificial intelligence will replace all jobs, including the most unlikely ones," "people's ignorance about what AI really is," "the difficulty people have in keeping up with AI," but also "the lifestyle and work habits of both managers and workers in the 1980s and 2000s (hence the "08 and 80" that appears on the alarm clock, symbolizing the workers stuck in that world), which in some ways is still relevant and on the verge of being overturned by AI." The short film is created entirely using artificial intelligence tools and combines cartoon and realistic styles. The film's images, as well as some plot points, are created using Chat gpt. The videos and many of the sounds are created using Kling AI. Editing and post-editing, as well as the video's music, are done using Cap Cut.

A Feather and A Prayer
- English (US)
In a world where technology ruled and humans craved the strange and sensational, a curious fashion swept across the land: the Pigeon Bikini. In this film we follow the dialogue over the phone between a customer who has just lost one of the pigeons she is wearing while sunbathing on the beach, and a grotesque and slightly surreal customer service agent named Lola LeClair working from what looks like a gas station/bodega someplace in rural America. Lola doesn’t seem incredibly invested, they rather word-play with the silly customer who while panicking doesn’t notice Lola’s uncomfortable sarcasm.
On Her Shelf
AI-Driven Short Film | Animated Poem A doll on a shelf. Dressed, posed, and silenced. “On Her Shelf” is an animated short created with AI tools and human intent. It explores the quiet force of manipulation — the kind that looks like love but erases identity.

I am an American
- English (UK)
BAIFF 2025 Best Documentary - This documentary is the result of extensive research, based on original photographs, archival documents, and firsthand testimonies. The visuals are based on the censored images of Dorothea Lange, commissioned by the U.S. government but later suppressed for decades. With AI, I have brought these photographs to life, recreating the world within them while remaining faithful to historical reality. The voices in this film are real. They come from survivors, their families, and historians, collected through interviews and documentaries. Every word is authentic, preserving the memories of those who endured this injustice. History is defined by what we choose to remember and how we tell it. While no image or recording can fully capture the past, technology allows us to reconstruct moments that were hidden or erased. This project is not just about revisiting history, it is about giving voice to those who were silenced. At a time when divisions are resurfacing and racial tensions are escalating, remembering the past is more important than ever. Hatred and fear can spiral out of control, leading to injustices that consume societies from within. Understanding history is not just about looking back; it is about remaining aware to prevent the same mistakes from happening again.
