Two men on a park bench in Copenhagen watch a young man performing incredible acrobatic flips and debate whether what they're seeing is real or AI-generated, perfectly capturing the modern anxiety of doubting reality in an AI-saturated world.

The scouts
Two minutes of a real bit — two men debating whether a real acrobat is AI-generated — and the meta-flex of not using AI to make a film about AI doubt is well-earned. Compact, current, doesn't overstay.
A two-minute comedy about AI skepticism that proudly used no AI in production is a polite gesture worth perhaps half its 124-second runtime — the premise is a single joke and the joke is fine. Pleasant rather than essential.
Two minutes four seconds of a Copenhagen park-bench debate over whether real acrobatics are AI-generated — and they explicitly used no AI in the production, which is the joke and the integrity move at once. Tight, conceptually pure, with a real cinematographer (Johan Back) credited.
