  • 🏆 A HISTORIC MILESTONE: "The First Shapeshifter" Triumphs at the Slash Eyes IFF Mallorca

    It is an absolute honor and an indescribable source of pride to announce that our first AI feature film, "The First Shapeshifter," has won the top prize for Best Independent Film at the prestigious Slash Eyes IFF Mallorca Film Festival.

    For CYBERIA Films—an emerging production company that merges Generative AI, music, entertainment, and film—this is not just another award. It is a turning point. It is the first international recognition that has required our physical presence to receive the iconic "Golden Blade" statuette and trophy in our own hands.

    "The cinema of the future is not measured by the opulence of its resources, but by the immensity of its audacity. Coming from humble beginnings, with a meager budget but unwavering determination, makes holding this statuette a truly Herculean achievement."

    We want to express our deepest gratitude to the festival organizers and all the professionals involved who make Mallorca a cutting-edge cultural epicenter. However, this triumph would not have been the same without a key figure.

    We want to give a heartfelt, special, and deeply affectionate tribute to Gabriel Fornés. Gabriel has not only proven to be an extraordinary professional and a pillar of the AI ​​Films movement, but he has gone far beyond the call of duty, showing himself to be a true friend. Thank you, Gabriel, for your exceptional attention, your thoughtfulness, and for being an irreplaceable host. Your hospitality in your beautiful city opened doors for us to connect with exceptional creators and key figures in this cinematic revolution. From here, we send you a warm and fraternal embrace.

    This award demonstrates that technology, when guided by soul and pure storytelling, can compete at the highest level. CYBERIA Films was born in the trenches of independent cinema, but today, thanks to the Slash Eyes IFF, we have shown that we are ready to shape the future of entertainment.

    Thank you, Mallorca. Thank you, Gabriel. This is just the beginning of the journey.

    Sincerely,

    The CYBERIA Films Team

    🏆 UN HITO HISTÓRICO: "The First Shapeshifter" triunfa en el Slash Eyes IFF de Mallorca

    Es un honor absoluto y un orgullo indescriptible anunciar que nuestro primer largometraje de IA, "The First Shapeshifter", se ha alzado con el máximo galardón como Mejor Película Independiente en el prestigioso Slash Eyes IFF Film Festival de Mallorca.

    Para CYBERIA Films—una productora emergente que fusiona IA Generativa, música, entretenimiento y cine—este no es un premio más. Es un punto de inflexión. Es el primer reconocimiento internacional que ha requerido nuestra presencia física para recibir en nuestras propias manos la icónica estatuilla y trofeo "Golden Blade".

    "El cine del futuro no se mide por la opulencia de sus recursos, sino por la inmensidad de su audacia. Venir desde abajo, con un presupuesto escaso pero con una voluntad inquebrantable, hace que sostener esta estatuilla tenga un mérito titánico."

    Queremos expresar nuestra más profunda gratitud a la organización del festival y a todos los profesionales implicados que hacen de Mallorca un epicentro cultural de vanguardia. Sin embargo, este triunfo no habría sido el mismo sin una figura fundamental.

    Queremos hacer una mención rigurosa, especial y sumamente afectuosa a Gabriel Fornés. Gabriel no solo ha demostrado ser un profesional extraordinario y un pilar en el engranaje de los AI Films, sino que ha ido mucho más allá del deber profesional, mostrándose como un verdadero amigo. Gracias, Gabriel, por tu extrema atención, por tu consideración y por ejercer de anfitrión de gala insustituible. Tu hospitalidad en tu hermosa ciudad nos abrió las puertas para conectar con creadores excepcionales y figuras clave de esta revolución cinematográfica. Desde aquí, te mandamos un cálido y fraternal abrazo.

    Este premio demuestra que la tecnología, cuando está guiada por el alma y la narrativa pura, puede competir al más alto nivel. CYBERIA Films nació en la trinchera del cine independiente, pero hoy, gracias al Slash Eyes IFF, demostramos que estamos listos para moldear el futuro del entretenimiento.

    Gracias, Mallorca. Gracias, Gabriel. Esto es solo el principio del viaje.

    Atentamente,

    El equipo de CYBERIA Films

    a festival in its first year and i was glad to be a part. the location was walkable; places to explore in the city were beautiful; getting around the city/island by bus was incredible; and the people were welcoming. the festival was beyond what i expected and a joy to meet fellow filmmakers.

  • I love everything this festival is about—the way it celebrates cinematic talent and brings together such an amazing community of artists and film lovers. I’m beyond grateful that my short film The Days of Knight: Chapter 1 was officially selected and even won a couple of awards! Huge thanks to the judges and everyone who makes this festival so special. I can’t wait to share my next short with you all. See you again soon!
