A Dream My Sister Had, Short Fiction, 7 Minuten, 2025

Five years ago, my sister had a dream where I turned into a monkey. She avoids movies because they give her nightmares, so this time, I brought her dream to the screen using AI and a video game. By embracing the glitches and letting the software unravel in a dream-like logic, the film explores what happens when someone you love transforms into someone unfamiliar. Ooh Ooh Ah Ah!
