OFFICIAL TRAILER RELEASE
Das Warten hat ein Ende. Wir präsentieren stolz den ersten offiziellen Trailer von Guardian. Der fertige Kurzfilm wird noch in diesem Jahr (2021) veröffentlicht und auf verschiedenen Festivals gezeigt werden.
GUARDIAN
Regie: Amir Reichart
Die künstliche Intelligenz E.L.I. kontrolliert die geostationäre Raumstation GUARDIAN, die als Abschussrampe der OMEGA-Bombe dient, welche mit ihrer Sprengkraft den halben Planeten auslöschen kann.
Als E.L.I. aufgrund eines geheimen Befehls die Zündungssequenz
aktiviert, müssen die Techniker COLTON und BELL versuchen, E.L.I. auszutricksen.
Was macht einen Menschen zum Menschen… was ist es, dass uns von immer intelligenter werdenden Maschinen unterscheidet…?
Dieser essenziell philosophischen Frage geht Regisseur Amir Reichart in seinem Science-Fiction-Kurzfilm „GUARDIAN“ nach.

THE REAL STARS OF GUARDIAN
What makes GUARDIAN such a special project for us is not just its story, but also the incredible trust and dedication our crew have given us along the way. Everybody, without exception, went above and beyond anything we have ever seen in helping us realize our vision.
Our team of set builders alone worked countless days (and sleepless nights) on end to create an actual space station that provided us with the most amazing playground any filmmaker could ask for.
OUR GOAL
We want GUARDIAN to go toe-to-toe with blockbuster features, both in terms of storytelling and visuals. And while we made sure that every visual effects shot was done in service of the story, GUARDIAN’s ambitious premise meant we still had to push the limits of what was possible.
That’s how we ended up with a total of over 350 VFX shots for 30 minutes of runtime which, proportionally, is on par with a fully financed sci-fi feature or high-end series.
WHY GUARDIAN MATTERS
We live in an era of technological change that’s transforming our society. With artificial intelligence likely reaching true consciousness at some point within our lifetime, the question is what exactly that consciousness will look like. Will it be cold and machine-like, or is there something inherent in complex cognitive structures that will transcend pure logic and give rise to true empathy and human-like emotions?
Embedded within this question is another, often overlooked one: Artificial Intelligence will not come into existence like organic life forms. Instead it will be consciously created. And that opens up a very disturbing thought: who should get to design and shape those intelligences, and whom can we really trust to have our best interests in mind?
With GUARDIAN, we’re trying to examine these questions through the lens of an action-thriller set in a chilling vision of our future. A future that is nearer than we might think.
GUARDIAN
„As a director, I draw inspiration from a wide variety of genres, but the greatest influence by far has been science fiction. Like no other genre it offers a rich canvas for creating new worlds with unique, captivating visuals.“
