A Face Only A Mother Could Love

2026 · 8 min · AI Films, Drama · Directed by Robert Gaudette

A man whose face the title describes moves through the city entirely unbothered by how the city receives him — and does not notice it stepping back. Two lonely people, one act of courage, and an accordion player who happens to play exactly the right thing at exactly the right moment. Grand Prix of the fourth AI Film Festival, out of a field judged by Roger Avary and Jane Rosenthal among others.
