Award winning director Lovina is currently prepping a new cyberpunk short film for a Kickstarter campaign. ARECIBO, a science fiction film about a courier on the run, is her latest project, following on from her previous success with Red String of Fate.

Description from the Kickstarter page –

Ryder, an independent delivery motorcyclist known as an ARECIBO, must outrun deadly bike gangs and a mysterious hacker known as The Cryptkeeper after discovering the dangerous secret inside her latest package.

Think Who Framed Roger Rabbit meets Akira, ARECIBO is the first Canadian indie neo-noir sci-fi short shot entirely on an LED volume, created and directed by LOVINA.  

Currently in post-production — your support will help complete the VFX to bring this world to life.

Lovina, a multidisciplinary artist based in Toronto, is an award-winning director, award-winning production designer, and producer. Her previous short film, Red String of Fate, screened at over 30 festivals, earning multiple awards and nominations. Lovina has also acted in high profile shows, such as Law and Order, Titans, and The Boys.

Red String of Fate is an exciting race against time set during a future war between humans and androids, and sees a robotics engineer trying to resurrect her fallen lover. It is available to watch for free on the DUST YouTube channel here –

ARECIBO is an ambitious production using cutting edge technology, including the same volume technology used in Star Wars projects like The Mandalorian. The film is currently in post-production, and the purpose of the Kickstarter campaign is to fund the completion of the VFX.
