Sharkarma
Sharkarma is a gripping cinematic experience that follows Dr. Karam Mana and his eclectic crew as their ocean expedition—partially funded by the shadowy organization Pelagos Dynamics—plunges into a chilling confrontation with nature’s ultimate enforcer.
What begins as a search for scientific truth near a geologically unstable region of the Pacific Ring of Fire quickly spirals into something far more ancient. Seismic anomalies, indigenous ocean myths, and buried corporate secrets begin to surface… and not all of them should.
Part 1, now available in Early Access for PCVR on [STEAM LINK], explores the thrill of discovery and the eerie quiet before the storm. With the full movie release expected in late 2025, the story will dive deeper into horror, revealing a brutal truth: in nature, karma always finds balance—and some debts are paid in blood.
Backed by leading ocean conservation NGOs and grounded in the real-world fight against shark finning, Sharkarma is more than an immersive thriller—it’s a wake-up call.
Written and directed by Cinzia Angelini, Sharkarma is the first cinematic-grade CG short film created exclusively for 6DoF VR, using our revolutionary V-Nova PresenZ format. With three Lumiere Awards from the Hollywood Advanced Imaging Society, our volumetric technology offers stunning visual fidelity and unprecedented immersion. This is the debut title from V-Nova Studios—and the future of storytelling has teeth.
Before you dive in, we recommend reading the Prologue and getting to know the four main characters. Their journey begins long before the ocean takes them.
