  • What Do You Want

    We are truly grateful for the official selection of Ljudski – Kandidat in the Best Music AI Film category at the Neuro Masters Film Festival.

    This marks the first time our animated short has been recognized for its international readability, and we are honored that its visual language resonated with your jury.

    Unfortunately, we were not able to attend the festival in person and experience firsthand the values and goals your program stands for — something we truly regret.

    Nevertheless, we wish the festival continued success and thank you sincerely for including our work in your 2025 edition.

    Beautiful experience and very happy to be present with one of my Films in a very beautiful and fantastic city like Moscow, which I was lucky enough to visit back in 1990, and of which I still have a beautiful memory of hospitality. I wish the organizers all the best for this innovative and up-to-date festival!
