LINES OF SIGHT

Format: AI-generated short film / trailer Genre: War Drama / Psychological Thriller Language: English Lines of Sight is an AI-generated short film that serves as a narrative teaser for a feature-length war drama. The film explores life in a city under sniper siege, where visibility itself becomes lethal and survival depends on instinct, sound, and memory. The story is anchored by Zaim, a radio operator broadcasting from an improvised wartime studio. As sniper fire and shelling shape the city’s rhythm, Zaim uses radio waves to warn civilians, guide their movement, and remind listeners that they are not alone. The film intercuts Zaim’s radio broadcasts with fragmented glimpses of civilian life: a mother and child seeking cover, people running through exposed streets, civilians carrying water through ruined neighborhoods, empty avenues shaped by fear, and a stray dog navigating instinctively through danger. In contrast, the film reveals the distant perspective of snipers positioned on the hills above the city — silent observers whose line of sight turns everyday movement into a fatal risk. The story builds toward a final moment in which a sniper fires at the dog. The bullet misses. The dog escapes and hides behind a ruined wall. Survival, not victory, becomes the closing statement. Lines of Sight is not a story about battles, but about what happens between them — about voices in the dark, walls that save lives, and the fragile space between being seen and being heard. The film ends with the line: “Destiny will come for all of us.” AI & Creative Process: This project was created using AI video and image generation tools within the Higgsfield platform.
