"In the towering labyrinth of steel and glass that is La Défense, the business district of Paris, the city hums with an eerie, frenetic energy. Shot on gritty 16mm, interwoven with fragmented CCTV footage and surreal VFX, the film plunges into a decaying world where paranoia and dread linger like an unspoken curse. A meticulously crafted miniature city becomes both playground and battleground for this urban myth—a space where reality warps and collapses under the crushing weight of fear. A wave of mysterious suicides spreads through the district, igniting a collective paranoia that reverberates like a silent scream.
Claire, Mister Ying, Catherine, and Madame Solange—isolated yet unknowingly intertwined—grapple with their inner demons. Beneath the city’s surface, a mysterious figure lurks, an oracle of the catastrophe yet to come. As the city crumbles, destruction becomes an inescapable force, but within the ruins flickers a fragile possibility of rebirth—a fleeting hope amid the devastation. A blend of film noir, fantasy, and social allegory, ‘Demons to Diamonds’ captures the collective paranoia of a society in freefall. Rendered in cold, decaying hues of blue and green, the film’s layered visuals and fractured narrative pose a haunting question: in a city consumed by ghosts, what does it mean to truly survive?"
