As every year, the short film selections of the Trieste Science+Fiction Festival invite audiences on a journey through the many facets of the fantastic and the speculative, weaving together present and future, body and technology, identity and otherness. Visions that question our time, opening glimpses into possible and impossible worlds where humanity reflects, loses itself, and sometimes finds itself again.
