WORLD PR​EMIERE - MAIN SCREEN

Director: Chris Marrs Piliero. Stars: Sean Gunn, Jermaine Fowler, Aaron Holiday, Michael Abbott Jr. USA 2025. 90 mins.

An ensemble tale with intersecting storylines that escalate into chaos as each portrays how easily deepfake technology can be weaponised to exploit society. When presented with video proof of something that aligns with our confirmation bias, how many of us will put forth the effort to make sure it is real? When Duke goes on a frenzy of reckless deepfake creations, his callous disregard of consequences shows how, with a few clicks of an app on a mobile phone, anyone can create a deceiving video of an unsuspecting victim and ruin their life... or end it.
