Join us for the second edition of the film festival celebrating creativity through AI technology

[dis]play

For this second
edition, the theme is:

This theme invites creators to explore the vast playground opened up by artificial intelligence. A space where rules are made to be invented, worlds to be built, and narratives to be twisted. Play is at the heart of it all childlike imagination, video games, wordplay, role-playing.

It’s about experimentation, amusement, the freedom to start over endlessly, to blur boundaries, and to embrace the surreal, the absurd, the fantastic.

Beneath its playful surface, the theme also raises questions about what we choose to show, or not show, on screen, about the interfaces that filter our perception and shape the way we see the world.

[dis]play is an invitation to play with codes, formats, appearances and with perspectives themselves.
