A cerebral sci-fi thriller that uses surrogate technology as a lens to examine isolation, authenticity, and what it means to be human in a disconnected world.

Set in a futuristic world where humans live in isolation and interact through surrogate robots, a cop is forced to leave his home for the first time in years in order to investigate the murders of others' surrogates.
