    • Synopsis
    • In the near future, Clarissa, a novelist with writer’s block, joins a prestigious artist residency. She lives on the top floor of an ultra-modern building where her every need is seen to by Dalloway, her apartment’s AI assistant. Quickly, it proves to be more than a simple assistant and becomes a true confidante for Clarissa.
      Yet, Clarissa is unsettled by the AI’s increasingly intrusive presence. She meets Mathias, a whistleblower artist who warns her about the true motives behind the residency and the tech company funding it. Clarissa begins to question whether this seemingly perfect situation is in fact a meticulously crafted trap.
