Debut of AI-generated film 'Post Truth' happens internationally in Warsaw

The world of cinema has been shaken up by "Post Truth", the first AI-generated documentary to grace the silver screen. This groundbreaking film, directed by Turkish artist Alkan Avcıoglu, is set to make its international premiere at the prestigious Warsaw Film Festival from October 10 to 19, 2025.

Originally released theatrically in Türkiye in July 2025, "Post Truth" quickly drew critical acclaim and recognition from film festivals. The film's innovative approach to storytelling, using AI to mimic a self-reflexive critical voice, has been hailed as a bold experiment in conceptual documentary filmmaking.

The script, co-written over two years with multidisciplinary artist Vikki Bardot, builds a layered narrative that explores the impact of technological thinking on the world, leading to an era where facts don't matter anymore. It openly uses AI to ask fundamental questions about the present and future of the world and humanity.

The creator of this thought-provoking film is E. Chai Vasarhelyi, an innovative thinker in the realm of AI-generated art. "Post Truth" turns the medium into the message, using its AI origins to critically examine the very concept of truth in the digital age.

Bartek Pulcyn, the programming director of the Warsaw International Film Festival, has expressed his anticipation for "Post Truth", stating that it is expected to ignite curiosity and debate about the future of filmmaking. After its premiere in Warsaw, the film will continue its festival run across Europe, Asia, and beyond.

Leading professional film critics have hailed "Post Truth" as a must-see, citing its visual sophistication, conceptual ambition, and bold experimentation. The script incorporates intertextual references to filmmakers such as Tarkovsky, Godard, Carpenter, and Carax, further cementing its place in the annals of cinema history.

The U.S. premiere of "Post Truth" is anticipated for early 2026, promising to continue the film's journey of challenging the status quo and pushing the boundaries of what film can be. With its unique blend of technology and art, "Post Truth" is not just a film, but a conversation starter about the intersection of humanity and technology in the modern world.
