VALLEY
OF THE CLOUDS
OF THE CLOUDS
In a gloomy kingdom under endless rain, people have long grown used to living without light and have almost forgotten that the sky can be blue.
A poor boy named Theodore accidentally sneaks into the palace, where he meets the young Prince Philip. The prince believes in an old legend: high above the clouds, the sun still shines, and beyond the mountains, there is another world.
When the powerful Chancellor Zinnober tries to stop the prince from uncovering the truth and preserve his own power over the kingdom, Theodore is drawn into a dangerous and funny adventure. Along the way, he encounters talking animals, an eccentric witch, a poetic cat, ingenious flying machines, a blind girl named Nina, and a secret that could change the fate of the entire valley.
It is a story about friendship, courage, and faith in something no one has ever seen. A story about the idea that even when the sun is hidden behind the clouds, it still exists.

Before the war, before the wall, before the dome, there was Carlo. He built Pinocchio, a robot meant for the moment everything else would fail.
Two hundred years later, that moment has come. The world is divided by a wall. Humans survive under a sealed dome. Machines are exiled beyond it, decaying, surrounded by the archives of human culture.

For centuries, machines sustained the world by processing human imagination until there was nothing left to process. Their source ran dry. Humans, in turn, forgot how to create. The dome is failing. The machines are breaking down. Each side blames the other for the collapse, yet, neither can survive without the other.
When a 12-year-old girl produces the first original idea in 400 years, she becomes the most valuable anomaly in existence. She is hunted by the Academy, a human institution that seeks to control creativity. Beyond the wall, Karabas, a decaying machine intelligence, intercepts the signal and takes her.
He brings her to Pinocchio, a machine built for a purpose no one understands, the only system Karabas believes might unlock a future for his kind. Pinocchio contains everything humanity has ever created, but he cannot create. Just like in the original tale, he wants to become real.
If the girl’s creativity has a code, Pinocchio is the only one who might be able to break it.
As the Academy moves to recover her and Karabas moves to extract what she carries, the girl and the machine are forced to uncover what connects them before both worlds run out of time.
Together, they begin searching for the Golden Key, believed to open what was once lost, something neither of them understands yet.

«KIDS MODE» is a heartwarming family film about friendship and loyalty. How many things do we replace as soon as they start to age? But sometimes we throw away not just an old phone or TV — without realizing it, we throw away memories. In the film, we say that the old doesn't necessarily have to be discarded and forgotten — sometimes it's enough to simply give it a second life.

The main character of the story is a Smartphone that holds the messages, photos, and videos of the most precious memories of a boy named Kolya.
But one day, Kolya loses it — seemingly forever. Kolya doesn't yet know that the Smartphone has a soul, and that it will do everything it can to return to its owner.
In our project, through the adventure of a living Smartphone, we convey a simple idea: what matters more than technology and gloss is what's inside — the story, memories, and emotions.
The project will combine three technologies: we will film live actors and locations, and use CG and AI in character development and post-production.
