Quantum Ride
Written and directed by Peter Koevari
Winner, Best Short Film of the Month, Five Continents International Film Festival 2025. 11 wins and 5 nominations on IMDb.
A singer caught in a Quantum Ride gone wrong, must prove her innocence and escape a mercenary intent on her destruction.
This looks like it cost a million dollars to make!
We have had many of his films in past seasons and all of them have been exceptional and Quantum Ride is a cut above.
It's a great film! I really loved it. Elements of Cyberpunk 2077. Plays out well and great VFX. Liked the aesthetics and the talent!
Director's statement
Quantum Ride is born of a love of sci-fi, cyberpunk and especially imaginative worlds in these genres from recent years. It was a strong collaborative effort between many cast and crew who were not afraid to come out swinging above our weight with a concept idea to showcase what we are able to create. We hope you strap in and enjoy the ride.
