# SELLY — The Enchanted Forest

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

Deep in a mysterious forest, Selly, a curious little girl, discovers a magical world slowly fading away, deprived of water.

Guided by compassion and unexpected encounters, she sets out to bring the forest back to life. When water finally reaches the roots of an ancient tree, a delicate magic begins to awaken.

But when Selly returns home, she carries a tiny secret that may prove her adventure was more than just a dream.
