DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT​​​​

.

During the design and conceptual phases, digital tools and technologies gradually became an integral part of the creative process. They were not merely instruments of production but, in a sense, co-creators of the work. The boundaries between authorship, direction, and the machine were redefined.

​

Many directorial decisions were made in real time, influenced by the visual reactions and behaviors of the software itself. Thus, the film evolved from a linear narrative into an experimental piece in which human and machinic intelligences interacted and collaborated to generate meaning. For an independent filmmaker working alone, this was both challenging and fascinating — revealing that creativity today is no longer an exclusively human act, but rather a coexistence of human imagination, technology, and intuition.
