Post truth
Sinossi
A fake film about the real world, Post Truth is the first AI-generated feature-length documentary in history. It explores our relationship with technology and examines how we arrived at a world where facts no longer matter. The film documents an era of endless information overload and cultural dissonance, using the very language of the era it reflects. It blurs the line between what is real and what is fake, questioning not only what we see, but what we choose to believe.
Director's statement
Post Truth is a natural continuation of the themes and visual language I’ve long explored in my artistic practice. In an age saturated with information and marked by the gradual collapse of reality, I believe we need a new visual language to describe the world around us. We live in an age where we are not sure what is real. As Baudrillard observed, in postmodern culture, copies
often feel more real than the original. Today, from politics to social media, everything feels staged and artificial. In such a context, making a film using AI-generated synthetic imagery is a way of holding a mirror to this world through its own language. The film is also an open invitation for the viewer to question the foundations of photographic reality, and the narratives we choose to believe in.
At a time when the future relationship between AI and cinema is often reduced to sensationalism and commercial fiction filmmaking, I approached this new tool not as a gimmick, but as a formal and conceptual question: what could it offer the documentary form. The narration is built through references to other films and thinkers, continuing a conversation that cinema has always had with itself.
