Yandere

A miniature AI hologram, MaÏko, is programmed to be utterly devoted to her teenage owner. But when he gets a real girlfriend, her passions may prove to be too large for her container.

William Laboury (born 1987) is a French filmmaker and editor trained at La Fémis, where he specialized in film editing after studying Art History. His short films—including Hotaru, Fais le mort (Play Dead), and Chose mentale—have screened internationally, notably at the Clermont-Ferrand International Short Film Festival, where Fais le mort received the Prix Canal+. Blending fiction, experimental cinema, and digital imagery, Laboury’s work explores memory, technology, and intimacy through a formally inventive and montage-driven approach to filmmaking.
