‘Colossal Wreck’ is a feature documentary journeying into the depths of the COP climate conference in Dubai. Are these enormous get-togethers all about false promises that hinder change? Or are they the only hope we've got for world-saving unity?

With his innocuous selfie-stick, filmmaker Josh Appignanesi moves unnoticed through Dubai's seductive slickness to reveal the talks, meetings and backroom parties behind the strange mixture of global cry for help and political jostling that is a COP.

We stand at a critical inflection point. Rising geopolitical tensions, trade conflicts, technological decoupling and macroeconomic volatility are fundamentally reshaping the landscape for innovation and entrepreneurship. Tariff wars, supply chain disruptions and shifting alliances are fragmenting once-integrated global markets. Meanwhile, the race for technological advancement in AI, quantum computing, semiconductors and clean energy is intensifying national industrial policies and redefining competitive dynamics.
