Director Statement

'Monolith' was initially conceived as our entry to the 2023 48hr Film Festival. With a shared passion for science fiction, our team set out to transport the audience to a post-apocalyptic future through the use of virtual production. Mixing humour, heart, social commentary and science fiction, 'Monolith' was a delight to work on and a great representation of what a dedicated, talented team can achieve - even with a low budget and tight production time.
