A dystopian sci-fi warning about authoritarian futures, structured as a cerebral, paranoid meditation on surveillance and lost freedom in a scorched world.

Inspired by Chris Marker's iconic 1962 featurette La Jetée; the year is 2073—a not-so-distant dystopian future—and the setting is New San Francisco, the scorched-earth tech-dominant police state where democracy and personal freedom have been well and truly obliterated.
