COMING SOOn...
your best nightmare
Your Best Nightmare is a hyper-glossy psychological sci-fi thriller exploring AI, cyberbullying, impossible beauty standards, social media addiction and idol worship through a youth-driven perspective.
Abigail, a high school outcast obsessed with rising girl-group star EL-V, enters an experimental AI-dentity program promising to turn her into her idol. As Abigail becomes AB-E, digital perfection and fashion to die for threaten to take over her true identity. Has she become the girl everyone wants to watch — or is she trapped inside her own best NIGHTMA.i.RE?
Created on a shoestring budget by a team of approximately 90% women under 30, the film brings together emerging talent, original music, fashion and storytelling. Despite its AI themes, the production used minimal AI.
The next testament
2026
Nothing is as it appears in The Next Testament. People searching for answers, redemption and those they have lost find their lives connected by a deeper mystery. Drawing on real-world tragedies, including hate crimes, racist violence and school shootings, the story asks where justice ends and revenge begins.
As an unseen presence guides events, artificial intelligence and ancient mysteries blur the line between truth and perception. Inspired by true events, the project explores trauma, memory, identity and free will — and whether the stories we believe are only part of a much larger design.

Trash & Burn: An iWitness Earth Film connects environmental storytelling with a call for change. Through personal stories, expert perspectives and striking visuals, the documentary explores how pollution, contaminated water and ecological destruction affect vulnerable communities — and the gap between caring about the planet and taking action.
Alongside these challenges, the film highlights groundbreaking innovations and grassroots movements working toward a more sustainable future. It invites audiences to move beyond awareness and become part of the solution.
