​🎬 About the GenJam Director's Cup
The GenJam Director's Cup is a 16-country, single-elimination AI filmmaking tournament, the first of its kind. Teams go head-to-head in GenJam's signature 4-hour creative sprint, using OpenArt.ai to write, generate, and edit a short film from scratch under a shared prompt and strict time limit. One team advances, one goes home. 🌍 16 nations entered. ⚔️ Now down to the Final 8. 🏆 1 champion.

​⚡ This Match
The Quarterfinals are here: win or go home. Join AI Storytellers from the United Kingdom and Indonesia as social realism meets island folklore. 🇬🇧 United Kingdom: the home of kitchen sink realism and literary adaptation, from the working class grit of Ken Loach and Mike Leigh to the kinetic swagger of Danny Boyle and the studio craft that gave the world Bond and Hammer horror. 🇮🇩 Indonesia: an archipelago of 17,000 islands and just as many stories, where world class horror like Satan's Slaves and Impetigore and bone breaking action like The Raid sit alongside the lyrical humanism of Garin Nugroho. A cinema of ritual, myth, and raw kinetic energy. Both fought through the Round of 16 to get here. Now only one moves on.

🇬🇧 United Kingdom: 1pm to 6pm BST
