# The Last Crumb

AI-made. Made with AI, as its festival says: “The 2026 edition of the Artefact AI Film Festival — an international competition for short films made with generative AI, organised by Artefact with mk2.” ([its page](https://artefact-ai-film-festival.com/), read 2026-11-12).

By Stéphane Gaudette, as [Artefact AI Film Festival](https://artefact-ai-film-festival.com/gallery) names them.

In an autumn park, an elderly woman offers the last of her bread to a flock of pigeons. What begins as an ordinary act of kindness slowly transforms into a fleeting, magical spectacle — before returning to something quieter, simpler, and more meaningful. Told without dialogue, The Last Crumb is a story of compassion, wonder, and how one small gesture can be witnessed, remembered, and carried forward.
