SPELL is an animated short film written and designed by Philippe Safire. The story takes place in Digital City, against the vivid backdrop of pixelated silhouettes and rapidly pulsating messages. The city’s accelerated pace exposes people to screens, glitches, data, and artificial intelligence. Suddenly, this socially and technologically advanced society faces a historic crisis. Between mystery and drama, SPELL captures our fascination with the digital and its power to disrupt communities and cultures.
