Film festivals around the world are pioneers in releasing movies with some kind of controversy that end up having (and bringing) a strong psychological and behavioral aspect to the debate table. This year is no different, and one of the festivals doing this is one of the most renowned worldwide: the Tribeca Film Festival, through the selection of the movie Dreams of Violets, a drama that was entirely created through the use of artificial intelligence.

Could a trend be emerging?

IMDb

In short, the movie's plot (which has a documentary slant) portrays Iranian civil resistance, focusing on the protests that took place in Tehran (in January of this year). All of this happens from the perspective of a ten-year-old child (who has cerebral palsy) named Amir. Through the window, he witnesses the brutal execution of five Iranians. A dramatic approach that came to life in cinema without using any human being in front of the cameras. I liked the creative audacity.

According to brothers Ash and Pooya Koosha (who are the directors of this movie), the idea for the project came to them after they read different articles about the bloody massacre that was taking place between Iranian authorities and civilians (which came to an "end" with at least 7,000 people dead and more than 50,000 people imprisoned). As for the way of filming, they wanted to create a "human" project that ironically was not starring real human beings. A heavy touch of irony, right?

The option of using artificial intelligence was an interesting idea, mainly because it optimized the entire filming process (which, by the way, cost only US$ 2,000 to produce entirely). Fountain 0 was the studio responsible for producing this project, and the movie is already being considered a kind of "cinematic milestone," as it was the first live-action feature movie generated by artificial intelligence to be officially recognized by a renowned international festival.

Technically speaking, all the AI-based programs (beyond the "arsenal" of technology that Fountain 0 used to frame and achieve precise shots for the project) used to turn the movie into a digital reality were: Kling AI (video generation), Claude AI (language editing), Gemini and Nanobanana (search and images). There is no doubt that cinema is truly experiencing a major metamorphosis of enormous proportions (which, to date, is immeasurable in its magnitude).


”Dreams of Violets”, indicios de una metamorfosis cinematográfica.

Los festivales de cine de todo el mundo son pioneros en estrenar películas con cierto grado de controversia que acaban aportando (y generando) un fuerte componente psicológico y conductual al debate. Este año no es la excepción, y uno de los festivales que lo hace es uno de los más prestigiosos a nivel mundial: el Festival de Cine de Tribeca, con la selección de la película Dreams of Violets, un drama creado íntegramente mediante inteligencia artificial.

¿Podría estar surgiendo una nueva tendencia?

En resumen, la trama de la película (con un enfoque documental) retrata la resistencia civil iraní, centrándose en las protestas que tuvieron lugar en Teherán en enero de este año. Todo se narra desde la perspectiva de Amir, un niño de diez años con parálisis cerebral. A través de la ventana, presencia la brutal ejecución de cinco iraníes. Un enfoque dramático que cobró vida en la pantalla sin utilizar actores reales. Me gustó la audacia creativa.

Según los hermanos Ash y Pooya Koosha (directores de la película), la idea del proyecto surgió tras leer diversos artículos sobre la sangrienta masacre entre las autoridades iraníes y la población civil (que “culminó” con al menos 7.000 muertos y más de 50.000 encarcelados). En cuanto al método de filmación, querían crear un proyecto "humano" que, irónicamente, no contara con actores reales. Una ironía contundente, ¿verdad?

La opción de utilizar inteligencia artificial fue una idea interesante, principalmente porque optimizó todo el proceso de filmación (que, por cierto, costó solo 2000 dólares estadounidenses). Fountain 0 fue el estudio responsable de la producción, y la película ya se considera un “hito cinematográfico”, al ser el primer largometraje de acción real generado por inteligencia artificial en ser reconocido oficialmente por un prestigioso festival internacional.

Técnicamente hablando, todos los programas basados en IA (más allá del arsenal tecnológico que Fountain 0 utilizó para encuadrar y lograr tomas precisas) empleados para convertir la película en realidad digital fueron: Kling AI (generación de vídeo), Claude AI (edición de audio), Gemini y Nanobanana (búsqueda e imágenes). No cabe duda de que el cine está experimentando una metamorfosis de enormes proporciones (que, hasta la fecha, es inconmensurable en su magnitud).


”Dreams of Violets”, sinais de uma metamorfose cinematográfica.

Os festivais de cinema mundo à fora são pioneiros em lançar filmes com algum tipo de controvérsia que acabam tendo (e trazendo) um forte aspecto psicológico e comportamental para a mesa de debates. Este ano não as coisas não estão sendo diferente, e um dos festivais que está fazendo isso é um dos mais renomados mundialmente: Festival de Tribeca, através da seleção do filme Dreams of Violets, drama que foi totalmente criado através do uso da inteligência artificial.

Uma tendência estaria nascendo?

Em síntese, a trama do filme (que tem um viés documental) retrata a resistência civil iraniana, colocando em foco os protestos que aconteceram no Teerã (em janeiro deste ano). Tudo isso acontecendo sob o olhar de uma criança de dez anos (que tem paralisia cerebral) chamada Amir. Pela janela, ele acompanha a brutal execução de cinco iranianos. Uma abordagem dramática que ganhou vida dentro do cinema sem fazer uso de nenhum ser humano à frente das câmeras. Eu gostei da ousadia criativa.

Segundo os irmãos Ash e Pooya Koosha (que são os diretores desse filme), a ideia do projeto veio à mente deles depois que eles leram diferentes artigos sobre o sanguinário massacre que estava acontecendo entre autoridades iranianas e civis (que chegou ao “fim” com pelo menos 7.000 pessoas mortas e mais de 50.000 pessoas presas). Quando ao modo de filmar, eles queriam criar um projeto “humano” que ironicamente não fosse protagonizado por seres humanos reais. Um toque pesado de ironia, certo?

A opção de usar inteligência artificial foi uma ideia interessante, principalmente pelo fato de otimizar todo o processo de filmagem (que aliás, custou apenas US$ 2.000 para ser totalmente produzido). Fountain 0 foi o estúdio responsável pela produção deste projeto, e o filme já está sendo considerado como uma espécie de “marco cinematográfico”, por ter sido o primeiro longa-metragem live-action gerado por inteligência artificial a ser oficialmente reconhecido por um festival de renome internacional.

Tecnicamente falando, todos os programas (para além do próprio “arsenal” de tecnologia que a empresa Fountain 0 usou para fazer os enquadramentos e a precisão de quadros do projeto) baseados em inteligência artificial que foram usados para tornar o filme em realidade digital foram: IA Kling (geração de vídeo), IA Claude (edição de linguagem), Gemini e Nanobanana (pesquisa e imagens). Não há dúvidas de que o cinema está realmente experimento uma grande metamorfose de grandes proporções (que até o momento, é imensurável em sua magnitude).

@jacobtothe The ledger doesn't lie, and neither do we. We've already exposed the interconnected web of your friends—the numbered wallets, the synchronized voting, the farming rings disguised as curation. Yet, instead of reflection, you offer only more silence and more downvotes.

Why does a "community" need so many ghost accounts to survive? Why do you refuse to admit that it is your friends and your own abusive behavior—not truth-telling—that drives people away? You can not hide the pattern, it only highlights the desperation.

We have to ask: Are you okay? Do you need some help with your mental health? Because no one in their right mind would choose to spend their life defending a house of cards built on lies, bullying, and botnets. There is still time to step back from the edge. Choose clarity over compulsion. Choose truth over the tribe.

The Sanctuary of the Builder: A Manifesto for Free Creation


Prologue: The Right to Rise

There is a sacred covenant between the creator and the soil upon which they build. It is the promise that if you plant a seed with honest hands, the earth will not conspire to crush it before it breaks the surface. It is the assurance that the gardener exists to nurture the growth, not to trample the sprout because it does not yet resemble the tree.

On the blockchain, this covenant has been broken.

We have witnessed a tragedy where the very tools meant to protect the integrity of the network—the downvote, the curation trail—have been weaponized by leviathans of power. These "whales," entrusted with the stewardship of the ecosystem, have become its jailers. They do not prune the weeds; they scorch the earth. They do not guide the new voice; they silence it with the crushing weight of their accumulated capital.

It is time to leave the shadow.

It is time to build where you are free.


I. The Betrayal of the Guardian

The downvote was conceived as a shield—a delicate instrument to deflect spam, to repel malice, to preserve the sanctity of the commons. It was never intended to be a hammer.

Yet, look at what has come to pass. The whales, those who hold the greatest sway, have turned the shield into a weapon of mass suppression. They do not downvote to protect; they downvote to dominate. They do not drive away the bad actors; they drive away the people. They create an atmosphere of fear where the creator hesitates to speak, fearing that a single misstep, a single unpopular truth, will summon the wrath of the oligarchy.

When the guardian becomes the predator, the flock must flee.

To build in such a place is to build on a fault line. It is to invest your soul in a garden where the owner holds the shears not to shape the hedge, but to decapitate the flowers that grow too tall or bloom in the wrong color.

This is not protection. This is tyranny disguised as curation.


II. The Call to New Grounds

Where, then, shall the builder go?

You must seek the lands where the soil is rich with freedom, not poisoned by fear. You must migrate to the platforms where the mechanism of suppression has been removed, where the only metric of success is the genuine appreciation of your peers.

Go to Blurt.
Here, the downvote button does not exist. There is no tool to crush your voice. There is only the upvote, the comment, the share. Here, value is created by addition, not subtraction. The whale cannot sink your ship, for there are no torpedoes in these waters. You are free to build, free to fail, and free to succeed on the merit of your work alone.

Return to Steemit.
In this older ground, the downvote remains, but it has not been twisted into a tool of systematic oppression. The culture there remembers the original intent: correction, not destruction. It is a place where the community self-regulates through dialogue, not through the brute force of coordinated downvoting cascades.

Build where the wind lifts you, not where the gale seeks to tear you down.


III. The Architecture of Freedom

Imagine a platform designed not for the convenience of the powerful, but for the dignity of the creator.

  • No Shadow Bans: Your content reaches the eyes it was meant for.
  • No Whale Veto: No single entity, no matter how wealthy, can unilaterally erase your contribution.
  • True Meritocracy: Rewards flow from engagement and love, not from the whims of a cartel.

This is not a dream. It is a choice.

Every time you choose to build on a platform that respects your agency, you cast a vote for the future of the internet. Every time you refuse to tolerate the abuse of power, you strengthen the foundation of a free society.

Do not let the whales convince you that their oppression is necessary. Do not let them tell you that their downvotes are for your own good. The gardener who kills the seedling does not love the garden; he loves only his own control over it.


Epilogue: The Unchained Creator

The blockchain was born from a desire for freedom. It was forged in the fire of resistance against centralized control. Let us not forget that origin.

If the current chains of Hive have become heavy with the weight of abusive downvotes, then break them. Forge new links. Build new shores.

Build where you are free.
Build where you will not be downvoted into silence.
Build where the whales are reminded that they are part of the ocean, not the masters of the tide.

The future belongs to those who dare to create without fear. Go forth, and build your cathedral in the sunlight.

Buen post. Que se haya hecho una película completa con solo es algo dificil de imaginar, pero lo que realmente deja pensando es el trasfondo. Es una tremenda ironía, como dices, retratar una realidad tan cruda, humana y dolorosa como la resistencia en Irán sin usar un solo actor real frente a la cámara. Tribeca abriendo esta puerta marca un antes y un después. La metamorfosis ya está aquí, nos guste o no.
