Director’s Name: Kyle McCabe
Writer’s Name: Kyle McCabe
Producer: Kyle McCabe
Country of Origin: United States
Country of Filming: United States
Language: English
Runtime: 30 minutes
Film Description:
Kafka’s classic tale is artificially sweetened in this AI-rendered, modern adaptation of “The Metamorphosis.” Presented through the eerie lens of machine-generated imagery, this experimental film embraces the uncanny valley aesthetic of AI to mirror the unsettling, dreamlike tone of Kafka’s storytelling.
When the dutiful breadwinner Gregory inexplicably transforms into a gigantic insect, the focus shifts to the quiet horror faced by his family. As months pass and their financial stability crumbles, the Sampsons grapple with an impossible dilemma: what to do about Gregory. Their struggle exposes a darker truth beneath their polite, middle-class façade—where the strangest horrors wear the most ordinary faces.
