Biography
Benedikt Ölz is the filmmaker behind "Riders Club: The Best Ending Is Getting Home", which took first place in the Shortest AI Film Competition 2026. The competition was run with LTX and screened at Forward Festival in Berlin.
The Forward Festival recap describes the film as a black-and-white piece about the end of a night out that nearly goes wrong, built around a familiar road-safety message. It closes on the driver meeting her airbag. The recap says Ölz made it with LTX, "putting the tool to work on something other than proving the tool works".
