Last Dance, a full-fledged VR short animation that has been highly evaluated by many international film festivals and famous artists for its epic scale and unique VR presentation, is finally available worldwide! <br><br>Synopsis:<br>The human race has devoured itself in war, resulting in the destruction of our home, the Earth.<br>Only an AI created by human wisdom was able to survive.<br>The AI escaped into space and was given a single mission: the Regeneration of Mankind.<br>It kept recreating the Earth and humanity over and over, hundreds of times.<br>However, the cycle of human extinction did not stop – it only repeated itself every single time.<br>Just when it seemed history would only repeat forever, a woman danced alone right before the end of her life.<br>The AI, interested in this woman, could not help but to land on Earth to ask her the reason for her Last Dance.<br>The encounter between the AI and her would change the fate of the Earth.<br><br><strong>Director’s Comment:</strong><br>This story is a “myth” in the distant future, in which a god-like omnipotent AI falls in love with a human woman.<br>But what is so attractive about a human to an AI whose existence is beyond human knowledge?<br>Perhaps, for an AI that can live forever, the short life of a human is like a trotting horse lamp, with their inconvenient body bound by gravity.<br>Maybe under these limitations, their glittering dance may look peculiarly attractive.<br>I hope it can become the VR experience that allows us to rediscover the fleeting existence of human beings and the joy of love through the eyes of AI.<br>Toshiaki Hanzaki<br><br><strong>Producer’s Comment:</strong><br>This is my first time making a feature-length VR animation.<br>I worked together with Director Hanzaki to create the original story, with our staff gathering the creativity and techniques from all over the world.<br>Together, we have successfully created a wonderful work that made full use of the goodness of VR media.<br>I would like to thank everyone for their hard work.<br>For the time being, we will mainly be exhibiting the film at different festivals.<br>However, we are planning to broadcast it and release it through events next year.<br>Please look forward to it.<br>Kodansha VR Lab<br>Representative Director and President<br>Kenji Ishimaru
