Quando l’AI rende sempre più facile ottenere una scena bella, coerente e tecnicamente impeccabile, il vero problema diventa capire cosa vale ancora la pena raccontare.

Perché se l’estetica si può replicare, quello che resta davvero personale sono il gusto, le ossessioni, le scelte, il modo in cui guardi una storia e decidi cosa mostrare e cosa lasciare fuori.

È lì che continueremo a riconoscere un autore. E probabilmente è proprio lì che l’AI renderà il cinema più interessante, perché ci costringerà a distinguere molto meglio la forma dallo sguardo.

CYAN
Directed by: Cyanmove

Dawn breaks across the frozen tundra. A small cyan figure finds and pulls on a pair of red socks. Shattering the solid ice beneath his feet, he embarks on a solitary journey.
He wades across a glassy, frozen lake mirroring the sky, traverses a chaotic forest stalked by giants, and delves into the dark, claustrophobic caverns of ancient ruins. As the mounting pressures of the outside world bear down on him, they gradually force a long-silent part of his inner self to the surface—a shadow that has always followed him but remained unacknowledged. Now, upon a black snowfield swept by a raging blizzard, it finally materializes in physical form.

Before
Directed by: Giuseppe Celestino

AI is a Lie
Directed by: Ron Chiers

AI IS A LIE is an AI-generated experimental sciencefiction short film about humanity’s growing dependence on screens and algorithms. As our attention shifts away from the stars and toward the digital, the film asks what happens when technology stops being a tool and becomes what we leave behind.

At BAIFF
OUR RED CARPET STARTS WITH A THREAD... OF IMAGINATION

So instead of rolling one out, we imagined our own, starting from Burano, from its lace, its threads, its identity, and transforming it through AI.

Because the future of cinema doesn’t always need the symbols of the past.
Sometimes, it just needs a new idea.

Special thanks to Piergiorgio Montrucchio for this "vision"

🇮🇹 Il cinema ha già cambiato strumenti molte volte.
Pellicola, digitale, CGI. Oggi c’è anche l’intelligenza artificiale.

La parte interessante, secondo noi, viene prima della tecnologia: scegliere cosa raccontare, trovare un punto di vista, capire perché una storia merita il tempo di chi la guarda.

Al BAIFF vogliamo partire proprio da questa domanda. Cosa succede al cinema quando l’AI entra nella scrittura, nelle immagini e nella produzione? E quanto cambia davvero il lavoro di chi crea?

Ne parleremo con autori, professionisti, creativi e persone che il cinema lo stanno già costruendo.

📍 13–17 ottobre 2026

🇬🇧 Cinema has changed its tools many times. Film, digital, CGI. Now AI is part of that story too.

The interesting part comes before the technology: choosing what to tell, finding a point of view and understanding why a story is worth someone’s time.

That’s where we want to start at BAIFF. What happens when AI enters writing, image creation and production? And how much does it actually change the work of filmmakers?

We’ll talk about it with authors, professionals, creatives and people who are already working with these tools.
