Honourable Mention for Ajāmila at AI Film Festival 2025
Just a month ago, Ajāmila - The Fall and Redemption was only an idea. A few weeks later, that idea turned into a full AI-generated short film. And a week or so ago, to my amazement, the film was officially selected at the AI Film Festival in Venice 2025 — and has now received an Honourable Mention.
I always thought that moments like these happened to other people — but here we are. While the film was never created with the goal of winning recognition or awards, it is both humbling and encouraging to see others watch it and find it meaningful.
This journey has taught me a simple but powerful truth: when you follow your dreams, take risks, learn new skills, and dedicate yourself to a project with sincerity, honesty, and clarity of mind, success has a way of finding you.
To the team at the AI Film Festival, my heartfelt thanks for selecting Ajāmila and for recognizing it at your event. This honour fuels the excitement for future projects and strengthens the belief that stories — whether ancient or modern, told through tradition or technology — will always find their audience.
