My AI-generated short film “Flowering Friend” is finally out — looking for honest feedback from filmmakers
Hi everyone,
I just released my short film Flowering Friend, an emotional AI-generated short film about a lonely boy who forms a silent bond with a flowering plant.
The idea was to explore loneliness, attachment, and how even a non-human presence can become meaningful when someone is emotionally isolated.
The film was created using AI tools for visuals/video, with human direction, editing, music decisions, sound design, and final storytelling choices.
I know AI filmmaking is still controversial, so I’m not posting this as “look what AI did.” I’m sharing it as an experiment in whether AI-generated cinema can still carry emotion and story.
I would genuinely appreciate honest feedback on:
Emotional impact
Visual consistency
Pacing
Music and sound
Whether the ending works

Thank you for watching.
