Good Luck To You All

CANADA 2025 9' M/12 2D digital, técnica mista, desenho

A young girl plays with her toys, unaware that she might just be holding humanity’s remote control. Voices of tech experts blend innocence, hope and mild panic about AI. This whimsical yet cautionary tale asks: who controls AI, who profits, and who’s still waiting for the manual?
