Two brilliant research scientists have invented a device capable of recording and playing back sensory experiences only to have devastating results when one of them records their own death.
A sterile laboratory becomes a site of cosmic terror when a sensory playback device captures the visceral mechanics of a human death. This cerebral thriller trades typical space tropes for a claustrophobic, psychological nightmare fueled by scientific curiosity gone wrong.
