Let's put Vietnam creativity on the global stage!
A fashion film about escaping social media
THE REALMSOF ZENNI
The Realms of Zenni is a surreal Vietnamese fashion film about a Gen Z girl who lives five different digital lives — on Threads, Instagram, TikTok, ChatGPT, and LinkedIn — until she's pulled into a dreamlike journey that forces her to shed each online persona and rediscover real human connection.
HUMANITY'S IMPACT
Bridging Generations
Our story creates dialogue across ages: youth feel seen in their struggles, while elders gain a deeper understanding of the challenges young people face today, all through the lens of shared cultural roots.
Cultural Pride & Roots
We celebrate Vietnamese identity by reimagining folk stories, traditional fashion, and local artistry, while creating a space for young creatives to shine and carry Vietnamese culture to the global stage.
From Social Media Chaos to Real Connection
The film reflects the struggles of Gen Z caught in endless online performance, while reminding us of the need for authenticity and genuine human bonds.
