Florida Premiere / Portugal / 2024 / English / 71 min / AI, Horror, Literature Director; Edgar Pêra: Writer; Fernando Pessoa, Howard Philips Lovecraft; Producer: Rodrigo Areias.

Howard Phillips Lovecraft and Fernando Pessoa were among the most influential writers of the first half of the twentieth century. Although they lived during the same period, Pessoa and Lovecraft never knew each other. Even so, there is a striking complementarity between their lives and their works.

Telepathic Letters is a film whose images were created exclusively through artificial intelligence. The film establishes a dialogue between the authors’ letters, essays, poems, and works of fiction, imagining a correspondence between the two writers constructed entirely from their own texts. This exchange gives rise to a new universe of artistic and literary possibilities, merging Pessoa’s Sensationism with Lovecraft’s Weird Realism.
