“Tears of Steel” is a short film shot in Amsterdam by the Blender Institute. All the funding obtained for this project was poured in the exploration of a complete open source pipeline for producing a high quality visual effect film, using open source software.

The movie was produced by Ton Roosendaal, with the help of Ian Hubert. They were assisted by an international team of 3D and vfx artists from Netherlands.

The plot makes use of a Sci-Fi setting, and it's about a group of warriors and scientists who try to recreate a past event in order to save the world.

The film, along with all the raw footage and studio files, will be released as free and open content, under the Creative Commons Attribution license.
