Brought to life by You Are Here director Jovardi (Jonathan Vardi) using the latest artificial intelligence technology, this grisly short film, titled IKONA, takes us on unsettling visual journey into the darkest corners of the human (and AI) mind.  

Set in a not-too-distant future with a frightening post-apocalyptic vibe, the uncannily realistic short is a testament to Jovardi’s talent for pushing boundaries and the rapid advancements in AI filmmaking tools, such as Minimax, Kling, Runway and Luma. 

Gambling, animal cruelty, mind-control, blood, gore, and prostitution are some of the delightful themes that feature in the just-under-6-minute film. Like all good horrors, it’s almost too disturbing to watch, but the arresting visuals and gripping story make it too intriguing to look away.
