ZIMOVYE — AI Short Film | Higgsfield Global Film Festival 2026

They gave her one hour to hide. Then the hunt began. ZIMOVYE — an AI short film Deep in the Siberian taiga, on the night before New Year, rescuer Nika arrives at an isolated private residence for what should be a highly paid temporary shift. By nightfall, she discovers why the place is so remote — and why she was really brought there. One woman. Seven hunters. A blizzard. And a forest that may be far less indifferent than it seems. ZIMOVYE is an action-horror short about survival, grief, family, and the arrogance of believing that nature can be owned. Created for the Higgsfield Global Film Festival 2026.
