Director Statement

Tales of Tomorrow is the story about us, stuck in a reality that we don’t always want, interrupted by countless external events that we don’t understand and dominate. It is the story of how we can overcome challenges by overcoming invisible limits, with unimaginable forces.
It is also a film about the past, about the future, about new universes, about new worlds. Tales of Tomorrow is about retelling your own story, how to organize your own story. How to create stories.
Is it a film about the real millennium bug? Or is it a film about transcending beyond the body? It is a fiction film, but it could also be a film about reflection.
