Brief synopsis
Christmas Eve in a dark and poor pensioner's apartment. The elderly lady Elly is dying when her husband Walter tries to chase a fly out of the room.
The scene, inspired by a poem by American poet Emily Dickinson, is told from the perspective of the fly. The studio set-up of the film was elaborately scanned in individual still vignettes with a stereo rig consisting of two Alexa Minis and an Ncam system and is to be combined using artificial intelligence (NeRF) to create a model that enables impossible camera angles as well as subsequent changes in light and focal length. An experimental film shoot that may explore future-oriented intersections between cinema and artificial intelligence. It's not called KI-NO for nothing.
