Zuma Vs. Filth is the first chapter of a sci-fi saga about a peaceful alien named Zuma Uma who consistently foils the plans of her arch nemesis Filth with the aide of a helpful child named Alex. It is an experimental 3D narrative told through inter-titles which are presented as chapters from a child’s storybook. Stylistically, the film borrows from the silent films of George Melies and Charlie Chaplin and the unique blend of science-fiction and children’s fantasy that Steven Spielberg is known for. On yet another level, Zuma Vs. Filth is an example of the lo-fi aesthetic contained in some of the fanciful visions of Michel Gondry and a visual poem dedicated to childhood.
