Grid
GRID follows Kelly Wine, a digital singer who receives a key from the creator of a virtual system called GRID, Xander Hype. After activation, she is uploaded into a digital world where her identity is reconstructed as an enhanced avatar. As her performance unfolds inside a constructed virtual stage, the system suddenly destabilizes. Kelly breaks beyond the boundaries of GRID and directly addresses the viewer, revealing that the screen is not a limit, but a gateway already left open.
Written & Directed by Xander Hype (Ukraine)
