About the film

"LAIKA" is my one and only entry for the 2026 Higgsfiled global film festival competition: A father takes his estranged teenage son into the Siberian taiga for a weekend's hunting, with the family dog and a rifle between them. This is the first short film I've generated end-to-end with AI, if you asked me 3 years ago, I would never believe this is possible.
