If a new AI god emerges, will he permit rivals to thrive?

Miracles and Saints by Francesco Paolo Somma is an ambitious, deeply thought-out music video that feels more like a cinematic short film than a simple visual accompaniment. The narrative is rich, dramatic, and tragically believable—a dystopian vision of faith replaced by algorithmic control, yet still haunted by traces of human spirit.

The music—sung in Italian—perfectly complements the sharp edges of the story, adding a poetic layer that enhances the emotional impact. There’s a soul in this film, even if it’s a dark one—and just enough of a sliver of hope, that universal human need to believe survival or rebirth is still possible.

Technically, the short is smooth, with well-crafted transitions and a consistent, cinematic visual style. The attention to detail is evident throughout—emotionally charged images paired with music that stands stronger than most submissions.

A haunting and powerful piece—both visually and musically—that leaves the viewer reflecting long after it ends.
