              Brains in the State of Suspension

              Kakia Konstantinaki / Greece / Live Cinema / 2025 / International Premiere / 12 min

              'Brains in the State of Suspension' is a live performance horror film exploring disembodied intelligence, domination, and horror as self-aware brains confront the monstrous consequences of their own drive for control.

              Artist statement

              What is it like to be a consciousness untethered to any physical thing? A human intelligence in the form of a brain that is dying to dominate a body? Brains in the State of Suspension is a live-performed CGI short film that interweaves liminality, non-linear narrative structures, human intelligence, and horror theory into a single immersive cinematic experience. At its core, the project explores how human intelligence relies on tools like domination and control in order to exist. What happens when human intelligence, historically framed through reason and logic, is stripped from the body and forced to reckon with its own impulses?

              The story: In a human-free world, brains wake up from cryogenic sleep and are in search of new bodies. Due to the lack of human bodies, they start possessing inanimate objects. After dominating everything, they notice that their fixation with control, led them to create monstrous entities. In a moment of irony, the brains realise that to defend themselves against the monsters, they must in effect destroy themselves. Their own intelligence is the monster and must be terminated.
