The Estate Sale I AI Short Film

Description: This AI gothic fantasy short by Bear Atelier, follows an auction of a deceased collector’s macabre treasures until an unlisted final lot reveals the extraordinary creatures he sheltered and loved. A lavish setting of velvet and gold, an eccentric auctioneer, and an affectionate parade of misunderstood beings transform an ominous premise into a tender, darkly humorous reflection on the difference between monetary value and worth. Created with AI-generated imagery, video, and audio, with final visuals generated on Higgsfield, the film pays homage to Guillermo del Toro’s compassion for monsters, finding humanity in those treated as curiosities.
