Why this film matters

POSTMAN sets an analogue gesture—delivering a letter by hand—against a world organised around efficiency. Its official artwork gives the protagonist a television for a head, so expression has to come from posture, movement and staging rather than a face.

Runway’s 2026 AI Festival gave it a Merit and hosts the complete animation.
