The Epic of Gilgamesh (2024) is a fascinating take on the ancient tale, crafted as a silent film with the unique twist of generative AI tools. The film’s tone is a blend of raw adventure and poignant friendship, capturing the essence of Gilgamesh's journey alongside Enkidu. The pacing feels intentional, with moments of stillness punctuating the action, allowing the audience to soak in the atmosphere of Uruk and its mythical surroundings.
