description: >
  Retrieval-first thematic montage pipeline. Builds a semantic corpus of real-world
  footage from Pexels, Archive.org (Prelinger et al.), NASA, Wikimedia Commons, and
  Unsplash, then uses CLIP-based
  retrieval to fill slot descriptions from a thematic brief. The edit arranges clips
  by narrative beat with music sync and uniform color grade across mixed-era footage.
  Inspired by Adam Curtis / Chris Marker / Errol Morris tone poems.
