KATANA

An assassin with no past. A sentient sword with a secret. KATANA is a cyberpunk sci-fi short film set in a neon-drenched dystopia where a lethal operative discovers her ancient katana is haunted by an AI with intimate knowledge of her forgotten past. As she grapples with the digital whispers echoing from the katana, reality blurs into a psychological thriller. Each encounter with the katana’s AI pulls her deeper into a mind-bending mystery that challenges her identity and her grip on sanity.

Mysterious, dystopian, and deeply philosophical, KATANA blends adrenaline-fueled action with thought-provoking questions about consciousness and control. Will our heroine reclaim the memories that were stolen from her, or will the weapon she wields consume who she has become? This short film’s atmospheric neon-noir visuals and haunting storyline will captivate fans of Blade Runner-style cyberpunk and mind-bending thrillers alike.
