WITHIN

WITHIN is a 3-minute psychological mystery short film created entirely with artificial intelligence. It follows a lonely man haunted by the sound of a pen writing somewhere in his apartment — until he finds a note that says: “Don’t turn around.” As he sets up cameras to uncover the truth, he realizes that the writer is none other than himself — or his reflection. A minimalist and haunting exploration of identity, time, and perception, WITHIN blends philosophy and technology in a surreal meditation on self-awareness. It questions who truly controls the present — the mind or the consciousness that observes it.
