A supernatural horror film that weaponizes digital isolation and loneliness, using a child's autism and screen dependency as both vulnerability and the monster's entry point.

Oliver, a lonely autistic boy, seeks solace and refuge in his ever-present cell phone and tablet. When a mysterious creature uses the boy's devices against him, his parents must fight to save their son from the monster beyond the screen.
