Three Acts of Silence is an experimental short film blending AI and live action, unfolding across three mirrored timelines: the turn of the millennium, a time of political unrest, and a mythic past. With minimal dialogue and a fast, symbolic rhythm, the film traces a woman’s passage through surveillance, betrayal, and the illusion of intimacy. As the final image returns to the beginning, a closed loop reveals itself. Stripped of traditional narrative, the film becomes a visual meditation on how a woman, across shifting eras, moves from silence to betrayal, from awakening to quiet self-possession, within a world shaped by love and control.
