right: Claude Opus 5.5. no designer, no 3D artist, no animator, no voice actor

i gave it the brief. it did the rest:
→ picked a true story and fact-checked it
→ invented and drew the characters
→ built every set in Blender
→ timed captions to every word
→ wrote its own sound design and music

5 minutes to render on my PC. this is prompt one
one more prompt for quality and it's ready to post.
