In development

In an age where online or offline all is not as it seems, this near-future, queer sci-fi thriller explores how close our ties to the technology are, how it affects our perception of reality, and whether the reality we treasure appears the way things really are.

Alice, an easily-led, ‘starving artist’ type, and her high flying, work-addicted, paranoid television executive girlfriend, Maxine, go to Alice’s ex-girlfriend Jane’s remote home in Cornwall to comfort her, as Jane’s current girlfriend Hannah has left her. But when they get there, Alice discovers that her scientist-inventor ex Jane is strapped to a chair, with a glowing red electric mask strapped to her face. Jane has created a scientific breakthrough; an ‘enhanced reality’ mask that allows you to choose, change and relive the reality you want. As Jane vies for Alice’s attention, and Maxine’s suspicions about them starts to be realised, Alice begins to unravel the threads of her relationship with them both. Or is it maybe with the walls, the floor, and reality itself? As the three grapple with the new technology of ‘enhanced reality’, Alice begins to become uncertain about who she’s in love with, who she trusts, and where she even is anymore.
