8 May
Summary
- Film 'Trüebadour' tests a device that generates stories from the user's subconscious.
- The plot blurs the lines between fiction and reality as buried truths surface.
- Avatar Entertainment is introducing the sci-fi/horror film to international buyers.

Avatar Entertainment is set to introduce the science fiction and horror film 'Trüebadour' to international buyers, with initial discussions occurring before the Cannes Film Festival. This project marks a significant lead role for actor Bergara.
The narrative unfolds within a state-of-the-art game studio. It centers on a team that is evaluating a groundbreaking experimental device. This technology is designed to manifest stories directly from the user's subconscious mind.
However, the device leads to a profound psychological unravelling. The generated stories begin to reveal deeply buried truths, causing the distinction between fabricated narratives and genuine reality to dissipate.
'Trüebadour' is structured as an interconnected anthology. This format allows multiple distinct story worlds, all linked by a shared ensemble cast, to converge and create a cohesive cinematic experience.
Christopher Lee Bythewood, Jonathan Hsu, and Zhang are producing the film. Zhang also serves as the director. The project is being developed in collaboration with the Asian American media outlet NextShark. A notable group of executive producers, including Jamie Lee Curtis, are also involved.
