A grandchild rebuilds their grandfather's favorite memory: the legendary winter of 1963, when the whole town lived on the frozen canal. The archive says it never happened. He corrects every take anyway. The film is structured as numbered takes — each correction regenerates the memory, and the takes drift the way memory drifts. Generative video's instability becomes the film's grammar of forgetting. Built entirely on fal: Nano Banana 2 for identity-locked first frames, face-checked before any video spend; Veo 3.1 and Kling 3.0 Pro cast per shot after a logged three-model bake-off. The 23-second closing glide is two Kling generations joined by a forced match-frame — a single invisible cut. The grandfather's voice-over is a MiniMax clone of his own AI-generated on-camera performance; an independent transcriber reads them as one speaker. It never happened. It's still true.
