PON | AI Short Film | Higgsfield Global Film Festival

My submission to the $1,000,000 Higgsfield Global Film Festival. A worn service robot walks the same route home every night. When a hunted street kid runs past him in the rain, he stops — and something the corporation deleted from nine million machines wakes up in him. To follow her, he has to tear his own obedience out of his chest. Written, directed, designed, edited and mixed by Sam Candler (myself). All imagery generated with Seedance 2.5 via Higgsfield. Music licensed from Envato. Made by one person, start to finish. 🎬 Written, Directed, Edited and Generated by Sam Candler
