World Premiere: 2043 by Simone Sighinolfi — Director Attending in Tokyo
About the Film
Set in a near‑future Tokyo dominated by OmniCom, a unifying super‑intelligence, 2043 follows Layne, a young hacker whose choices pull him into a conflict far greater than himself. Blending cyberpunk mood, AI‑driven imagery, and a dystopian narrative, the short offers an atmospheric look at freedom and control in an algorithmic society.
“In a future Tokyo controlled by a powerful AI corporation, Layne, a disillusioned hacker, stumbles into a hidden conflict far larger than himself.”
