A nine-and-a-half-minute Star Wars fan film, the first part of the story Dustin Hollywood began teasing in March 2024 with a ninety-second cut captioned "If I had made Star Wars Episode 7." Seven months and several model generations later, the teaser had grown into a full first chapter.

It belongs to a long line of AI Star Wars tributes, from [Curious Refuge's 2023 test](https://aifilmhistory.org/entry/can-ai-make-a-star-wars-film) onward, and shows how far a single fan could take a franchise pastiche by the fall of 2024.
