Beyond Limits
The Next AI Film Festival is here!
Beyond the limits of imagination and expression, and beyond the boundaries of genre,
a new platform is taking shape to showcase diverse works and discover new voices in AI filmmaking.
As an intimate and distinctive AI film festival,
we aim to provide a space to explore emerging trends in AI filmmaking from Korea and around the world, while examining the cultural and industrial potential of AI content.
Going beyond AI as merely a technical tool,
the festival seeks to explore the nature and creative possibilities of AI as a medium.
We invite creators to join us on this journey!
