Venus: A Cyberpunk Short Film

Venus: A Cyberpunk Short Film

Over the years, this site has contributed to a number of crowdfunding projects that speak to the same themes and ideas as those presented here. The cyberpunk short-film Venus is one such project, that has gone on to receive numerous accolades and festival awards since its release in 2021.

I’m pleased to say that you can now view the short in full, as it has been uploaded to the Dust channel on YouTube that ‘presents thought-provoking science fiction stories, exploring the future of humanity through the lens of science and technology’. Quite a fitting channel to showcase on Future Conscience!

Enjoy the Venus film below and you can also read our review of the short, as well as an interview with its Director that took place during the post-production process before initial release on the festival circuit.
