Post Truth

Post Truth is a feature-length documentary of about 102 minutes, directed by Turkish artist Alkan Avcıoğlu and co-written with Vikki Bardot, in English. Sales are handled by Odin's Eye Entertainment of Sydney, and the Turkish distributor Başka Sinema released it in cinemas there; its trailer promoted a 11 July release. The Revelation Perth festival lists it as a 2026 Türkiye production, while a trade catalogue gives 2026 as the completion year. It is marketed as the first feature-length documentary generated entirely with AI and the first AI feature to be awarded by an international jury, claims that come largely from its sales company's own promotion.

According to the pages, Avcıoğlu shaped the film from more than 60 hours of AI-generated footage. In an interview he said the images, the narrator's voice and the music were generated with AI, and the business press says he customised the models with his own visual art and music. He told another outlet he matched different AI tools to different tasks, such as close-up faces, camera movement and distorted human forms, but declined to name them, so no model is named in the sources. He is a former film critic and acquisitions executive who turned to AI filmmaking in 2022; his works have been auctioned by Christie's and shown at Paris Photo and Art Basel Miami. He cites Godfrey Reggio and Adam Curtis as influences. The soundtrack was issued by Tamar Records on vinyl, CD and digital.

The film had its international premiere at the Warsaw Film Festival and later won the Audience Award at FrontDoc, played in the main competition at Fantasporto, and was selected for the Festival dei Popoli and the Antalya Golden Orange Film Festival. It won Best Art Feature Film at the 42nd Asolo Art Film Festival, whose jury said the work "does not merely describe post-truth; it performs it". It received two nominations (Best Editing, Best Music) from the Turkish Film Critics Association. Further screenings were announced at the Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival and Revelation Perth. The sales company's Michael Favelle said the process should not define the work, and that what endures is the artist's vision.
