"The Stain" Set for Los Angeles AI Film Festival

Hoda Fallah’s AI-generated short explores adolescence and silence in a traditional family, debuting in Hollywood.

The short film "The Stain", written and directed by Hoda Fallah, will be screened at the 3rd AI International Film Festival in Los Angeles. The festival takes place on November 16, 2025, at the historic Los Feliz Theatre, where The Stain will feature in the short films section.

With a runtime of 3 minutes and 43 seconds, the film was entirely created using AI tools such as LTX Studio, Runway, and ElevenLabs. It narrates the story of a teenage girl navigating adolescence, shame, and silence within a traditional family setting.
