Spaceborn

In the year 2043, humanity witnesses a moment that changes everything—the first human is born in outer space. Spaceborn is a visually stunning, AI-generated short film that explores the profound spiritual and philosophical implications of this milestone. As the birth unfolds, Earth undergoes its own transformation, mirroring the awakening of human consciousness. With breathtaking imagery, cosmic wonder, and a deep emotional core, Spaceborn invites audiences to reflect on the future of life beyond our planet and the rebirth of humanity itself.

Official Selection

Oreo

Oreo is 4 vingettes - Black Card, Girls, Mira and The Other. They feature women of color at various ages and stages of their lives as they experience the moments of being on the "outside." Though a universal message, I hope that Oreo shows that these themes are often compounded by things like class, race, religion, and colorism. Here we focus on those moments where they choose how to conform or not to conform by standing in their otherness using humor and surrealism.
