Composed of images and music produced with artificial intelligence, The Dream of Abel Gance explores the poetic imagination of filmmaker Abel Gance through his "crystal-house"—a hybrid space serving as a laboratory, film studio, and neural realm. Inspired by his writings on cinema, the film weaves a virtual temporality that allows us to envision the filmmaker’s forgotten utopias and dreams. The archive has become speculative, breathing new life into the long-standing promises of the Seventh Art.
