The first film festival in Switzerland entirely dedicated to AI
The Merge Film Festival, running from 1 to 4 October, is Switzerland's first film festival dedicated to artificial intelligence.
It offers four days of screenings, masterclasses and public talks.
An opportunity to question the role of artificial intelligence in creative processes and in the wider transformation of our relationship with images.
Merge was born out of the need to give space to a new form of cinematic language, while also serving as a space for reflection on the cultural phenomenon of artificial intelligence. A transformation that is challenging our relationship with reality.
