Convoluted (Artificial Sorry > Church Intelligence)
David Leal
Experimental : 6' / Abuse, Politics, Religion

Inspired by the re-emergence of numerous cases of sexual abuse in Portugal, triggered by the Pope's visit to the country, the film uses artificial intelligence to return objects of chastity - originally associated with religious practices, but now adopted by fetishist communities - to their origins, handing them back to church figures.
