This is a play on the Atlanta area code (404) and where films that are very well done but don't particularly fit into a specific category. Let's get experimental. Keep ATL weird! There's something to be said for uniqueness!

A Film by Roland Wehap
The film "A Film by Roland Wehap" is a work by the filmmaker of the same name, Roland Wehap, who, as a "one-man show filmmaker," challenges the concept itself by embarking on an extraordinary experiment: Is it possible to produce a short film with almost no budget entirely on your own?
In this ultimate "one-man show," fiction and autobiographical elements merge into a biting satire about an uncompromising filmmaker. Driven by his relentless quest for fame, recognition, and the big breakthrough, he navigates the typical stages of a film career riddled with setbacks.
For a brief moment, however, he basks in the glamour of the world stage: he creates a film about his sleeping cat, establishes his own film festival after being rejected by all the others, and even gains international attention. But it quickly becomes evident that fame and honor don’t always translate into financial success.
In the end, one truth remains: a filmmaker has to make films—whatever the cost.

AI Anime Hero Reluctantly Returns… Again
AI Anime Hero Reluctantly Returns… Again is a genre-bending meta-anime about Ayumi Tanaka, an ordinary high school girl dropped into an extraordinary fantasy world anime episode—again. Armed with sharp wit, glitchy stats, and no patience for clichés, she navigates magic, quests, and mysterious forces with a mix of sarcasm and survival instincts.
Blending classic isekai tropes with fourth-wall humor and modern anime flair, this series is as much about the chaos of heroism as it is about dodging it entirely.
