The Festival Is Also Going to Be Presenting VR Films for the Third Time

Voice meditation, the beating of a robot's heart, and the insidious Baba Yaga are heading to Zlín in virtual format. For the third time, the festival will show a screening of the most creative VR films for children and teenagers. The program will, as usual, be divided into two categories: interactive projects and 360 ° images. Visitors will be able to see both categories of works within the premises of Tomas Bata University (U13) next to the festival center.

BEAT

Imagine what it would be like to quicken the heart of a little robot? A unique interactive film about love, in which it does not matter whether you have wires or arteries in your body. Prepare handkerchiefs and put them under your VR goggles.

 

SOUND SELF: Technodelic

It is a well-known fact that the voice has great power. You can even crack light bulbs with it. But can it also be used for meditation? A unique relaxing VR experience in which you will dance between colors thanks to your voice. Whether you're upset by your teacher or the boss, you can leave your anger in the VR helmet, and mentally cleanse yourself.

BABA YAGA

Studio Baobab is at the top of the VR field. Their latest project, Baba Yaga, is an adaptation of the well-known fairy tale, and players will be able to deal with the witch in several ways using intuitive interaction. Also available for retired or active witches and wizards. Mark - broom parking in front of the cinema.

UPSTANDER

Bullying in schools is an endless topic and children have probably seen it in all possible forms. But now it appears in VR for the first time. And the creators have thrown their own personified backpacks into the virtual ring instead of the children. An original rendition with a strong supporting campaign. What are we carrying on our backs? Definitely more than just textbooks and snacks.

ARIPI

Who has never dreamed, at least once, of adventuring into space as an astronaut? It happens to the protagonist of this film a bit by accident. This silent film also impresses with its fragile atmosphere, as it is the first VR film produced in Moldova. So spread your arms and wait for the wind to take you.
