Overview: Oikonomia, a personification of economy, governs the dominant civilization. Their mad conquest leads them to extract water from rare and surreal oases that have been hidden in a digital matrix. Blind by the water rush, their objective is to find and steal until the last drop of water to turn it into energy. The Rebels, one with nature, have devoted their lives to saving the last remaining water and fighting Oikonomia troops who came to plunder them. Their war is waged like a digital game. Oikonomia civilization corrupts the planet with attacks that leave devastation in their wake. Deprived of water, all humankind waste away and die. The balance is broken. This struggle leads to a breakthrough, a radical shift in how our economy, society, and environment work. The Economy must invent a new, responsible dynamic to co-exist peacefully with Nature.

Overview: Jamie xx’s Gosh music video, directed by Romain Gavras, is a visually striking short film set in the uncanny replica town of Tianducheng, China—a faux Paris complete with a 300-foot Eiffel Tower and empty, Parisian-style streets. Eschewing CGI entirely, the video features a man with albinism, dressed in white, celebrated as a godlike figure by an army of over 400 disciples. Gavras uses sweeping, symmetrical visuals and hypnotic choreography to create a surreal meditation on idolization, isolation, and the strange beauty of artificial environments. A masterclass in ambitious, atmospheric filmmaking, Gosh transforms a forgotten backdrop into a hauntingly vivid world.
