MiniMax (Hailuo AI) x Inspiring Asia 2025 Film Festival

Inspiring Asia · Asia Microfilm Festival partners with MiniMax (Hailuo AI) to call for submissions, using AI to drive social good

AI for Social Change

AI is redefining creativity, and we choose to be drivers of this wave, not just observers.
🐚 MiniMax(Hailuo AI) has partnered up with “Inspiring Asia” Micro Film Festival as an AI Innovation Partner to introduce a special “Best AI Microfilm Award”, focusing on youth mental health. Through the power of technology, we hope to see more innovative expressions that are warm, thoughtful, and impactful.

The Mission: Youth Mental Well-Being

Youth mental health is one of Asia’s most urgent yet overlooked challenges. Around 20% of young people globally experience anxiety, and nearly 1 in 4 show symptoms of depression. Many struggle in silence, facing emotional isolation while access to care remains uneven.

The festival’s call to action is simple yet profound: “To Be Seen.”

MiniMax Partnership: Empowering Every Creator

Each participant receives exclusive credits to support their creative journey:

Through AI-powered storytelling, creators are invited to illuminate hidden struggles, offer hope, and inspire systemic change. Technology that once seemed cold and mechanical is now a bridge connecting isolated youth with the understanding and empathy they need.

Key Details

Beyond the Competition

Youth struggling with mental health across Asia need their stories told. They need to be seen, understood, and supported.

Inspire change through film and philanthropy. Be part of Asia’s next wave of creative storytelling.
