In a near-future world where the boundaries between human consciousness and artificial intelligence blur, a groundbreaking scientific experiment threatens to unravel the very nature of identity and existence. Sydney Chandler stars as a brilliant researcher who becomes entangled in a mysterious project that challenges everything she believes about the soul and what it means to be human.

When cutting-edge technology allows for the transfer of consciousness between organic and synthetic beings, the line between life and artificial creation becomes dangerously thin. Takehiro Hira delivers a compelling performance as a key figure whose own connection to the experimental process raises profound questions about memory, mortality, and the essence of self. The supporting cast, including Tom McCarthy, Lili Taylor, Marin Ireland, and Maria Dizzia, brings depth to this thought-provoking exploration of what happens when science pushes beyond ethical boundaries.

Director Brian Tetsuro Ivie crafts an atmospheric sci-fi thriller that delves into philosophical territory while maintaining tension and intrigue. As the characters grapple with the implications of their discoveries, they must confront not only external threats but also the fundamental question of whether consciousness can truly exist independent of its original form. The film weaves together elements of psychological drama and speculative fiction to create a haunting meditation on identity in an age of technological transcendence.
