While Higgsfield AI‘s most recent project, the fully AI-generated absurdist action sci-fi film “Hell Grind,” found some plot in a combination of ethnically vague heroes and monstrous villains, the company’s next project is set in the realm of Central Asian folklore.

“Kök Börü,” a 15-minute animated short film, marks the studio’s first effort since it premiered “Hell Grind” during May’s Marché du Film, the Cannes Film Festival’s marketplace. The latest project will premiere Wednesday at the SIGGRAPH conference in L.A. “Kök Börü” takes its name from the traditional Central Asian horseback game, where mounted teams try to earn points as they try to drag a goat carcass across a goal line. In the film, nomadic mother Ana tries to find a daughter she lost to a wolf pack years ago after the pack cornered both of her children.
