About the project
The brief and the answer
Fusion Express has long been a household name on the streets of Kaliningrad — so we turned that reputation into an actual legend. A samurai chef wanders across Asia in search of the perfect taste: he crosses distant lands, gathers ingredients and recipes, fights a dragon for the secret of a sauce and fends off a noodle kaiju. In the finale, wielding his blades mid-flight, he mixes the best ingredients into one enormous bowl of noodles. The film was made entirely with AI: 300 hours of generation, thousands of sketches, hundreds of tests and dozens of iterations. Most of that work will never reach the screen — but it is exactly what created the sense of full immersion.
