The "Torenza" story may have been borrowed from the 1954 urban legend of the "Man from Taured," a supposed traveller with a passport from a fictional nation who vanished from custody. The Torenza woman's case also bears resemblance to the real 1959 case of John Zegrus, a conman who forged passports from fake countries like "Tuarid" to scam banks.
As AI use gains pace across the globe, it is becoming increasingly difficult to differentiate fact from fiction. Videos created using the latest AI tools claim to show - often convincingly - that an event or accident has taken place.
Last month, a disturbing video showed a marine trainer named "Jessica Radcliffe" being fatally attacked by an orca, also known as the killer whale, during a live show.
Despite being shared widely, there is no credible evidence to support the claim that a marine trainer named Jessica Radcliffe was attacked by a killer whale. Authorities, marine parks and established news outlets found no record of her existence or the incident.

Truth Behind The Viral Torenza Passport Woman Video
A video depicting a woman arriving at the John F Kennedy (JFK) International Airport, USA from Tokyo with a passport from "Torenza," a nonexistent country, has been circulating widely on social media. First posted on TikTok and later on X (formerly Twitter) earlier this month, the bizarre video shows the woman arriving at the immigration counter with Torenza's passport and explaining its location to the confused officers.
The incident led to wild theories about parallel dimensions, time travel and government cover-ups. However, as it turns out, the video is an artificial intelligence (AI)-generated fiction.
No statement corroborating such an incident has been released by JFK authorities, US Customs and Border Protection, or any credible news outlet. No official reports and no passenger records further highlight that the video may have been conjured by someone hoping to receive a quick payout online.

Faber & Faber, 1956 - Africa - 309 pages
"The white man was generally considered the chief hurdle to African freedom by the young revolutionaries exiled to England. But when Udomo, whose fire and drive seemed to fit him to be the one to go out to Queensland to lead revolution, is himself the leader he finds there are two other enemies,- poverty and the traditions of his people. Udomo- back in London- had betrayed the white woman who loved him. For this some of their mutual friends could not forgive him. But in Africa, he learns to compromise with conditions with one sole goal in view. He sends for the others of the group, once the revolution has won control, politically, for the blacks. One of his comrades he returns to his mountain people to cope with some of the ritual problems, to lay the groundwork for education. Another -- whose first attempt at revolution had failed and whose life might be forfeit -- seeks out a secret way through the jungle, and launches a peaceful campaign of sabotage. Then Udomo is threatened with the end of his goal of economic recovery- and again he sacrifices the individual for the cause, or so he feels. But he reckons without the abiding sense of loyalty, and he dies at the hands of fanatics who cannot forgive. It is a powerful story, disturbingly violent. It has its moments of tenderness in first one, then another love story. It has several unforgettable figures. But it won't be an easy book to place, for the moral code, the sexual code is remote from our understanding. Abrahams is not to be overlooked- as witness Mine Boy and Tell Freedom."--Kirkus

Le Triptyque... wikipedia
Un triptyque (du grec τρίπτυχος / tríptukhos, « triple, plié en trois ») est — dans le domaine des beaux-arts — une œuvre peinte ou sculptée en trois panneaux, dont les deux volets extérieurs peuvent se refermer sur celui du milieu.
Ce format se développe essentiellement aux xiie et xiiie siècles, dans le cadre des retables, la peinture religieuse en Europe.
Les triptyques entrent dans la famille plus large des tableaux polyptyques.
Acception en littérature
C'est également une œuvre littéraire ternaire, par exemple La Divine Comédie de Dante où trois pôles se distinguent : l'Enfer, le Purgatoire et le Paradis.
Un exemple plus contemporain serait celui du roman Amour, Colère et Folie de Marie Vieux-Chauvet, publié en 1968 et faisant figurer les trois thèmes éponymes.
