| Yes: |
AI was used only in post-production/VFX to remove the performers and rebuild the background behind them, while preserving their original clothing, movement and the 16mm footage. |
| Notes: |
The film explores how identity remains visible through movement, clothing and the small physical habits people develop over years of work and life. Even when the person disappears, who they are can still be recognised through the way they move and interact with the world. |
