Washing Dreams Premiere: Our AI-Generated Film Screened at Claude Lelouch’s Legendary Club 13 Cinema

On Monday, October 5, 2026, Interactive Studio had the pleasure of hosting the French premiere of Washing Dreams, our AI-generated film, during an exceptional evening at Club 13, the legendary Parisian cinema founded by acclaimed French filmmaker Claude Lelouch.

In this iconic venue of French cinema, more than 70 invited guests gathered to experience Washing Dreams on the big screen, a film imagined, developed, and directed by the creative teams at Interactive Studio.

Set in Hollywood in 1984, Washing Dreams is a cinematic project that explores the new creative possibilities offered by artificial intelligence in filmmaking and audiovisual production: from character and set design to AI-generated sequences, directing, post-production, visual effects, original music, and the creation of an entire cinematic universe.

For our teams, this screening represented a particularly meaningful milestone: bringing this new approach to filmmaking into the environment where cinema truly comes to life, a theater, a big screen, and an audience.

Following the screening, Cédric Bensoussan, co-founder of Interactive Studio and creator of the Washing Dreams universe, took the stage to share insights into the different stages of the film’s production.

It was an opportunity to take the audience behind the scenes of this retro thriller, discussing the artistic and technical decisions made by our teams, as well as the challenges, limitations, and countless experiments required to bring the final film to life.

The presentation was followed by an engaging Q&A session, exploring not only the film itself but also the broader impact of artificial intelligence on visual storytelling, audiovisual production, and the future of cinema.

The conversations continued over drinks after the screening. Filmmakers, visual artists, creative professionals, entrepreneurs, cinema enthusiasts, and curious minds came together to exchange perspectives on the themes explored in Washing Dreams and the rapid evolution of generative AI technologies.

Beyond the technological demonstration, our ambition with Washing Dreams is to show that artificial intelligence can become a powerful new tool in service of artistic vision, storytelling, and cinematic direction, without replacing what remains at the heart of every creative project: the original idea, artistic direction, and human decisions that bring a story to life.

We also captured the impressions of several audience members through a series of short video interviews.

The response was overwhelmingly positive, with many guests praising the film’s visual quality, distinctive cinematic universe, atmosphere, and the level of production achieved using artificial intelligence. Several attendees were particularly impressed by the amount of work accomplished in just a few months, as well as the overall consistency of the film despite the entirely new production methods involved.

But above all, one comment kept coming up: people wanted to know what happens next. Some audience members were already asking when they could expect Episode 2 of Washing Dreams.

These video testimonials allow us to extend the experience of the premiere and share something beyond our own perspective on the project: the genuine, spontaneous reactions of an audience discovering a film created using a new generation of filmmaking tools.

For this special evening, Club 13 was fully transformed to reflect the visual identity and atmosphere of the film.

From the moment they arrived, guests were immersed in the world of Washing Dreams through a series of elements created exclusively for the event: a dedicated photo backdrop, movie posters, custom graphics, and life-size character cutouts.

The entire experience was designed as an extension of the screening, bringing the film’s characters beyond the screen and into the cinema itself for one unforgettable evening.

And to keep the experience alive after the event, every guest went home with an exclusive Washing Dreams Goodie Bag.

This premiere marks another important step in the development of Washing Dreams, but also in our ongoing exploration of the new creative and production possibilities enabled by artificial intelligence.

For Interactive Studio, this project is above all a genuine creative laboratory: an opportunity to experiment, push the boundaries of audiovisual production, and develop innovative workflows combining artistic direction, filmmaking, generative AI technologies, and human expertise.

The screening at Club 13 gave us the opportunity to share this creative journey with an audience and open up meaningful conversations about what the future of cinematic storytelling and AI-powered filmmaking might look like.
