Zach, a maintenance worker at a cutting-edge research lab, has always harbored a secret crush on lead scientist Eve. During a chance encounter at a bar, a passionate night takes a terrifying turn when Zach suffers a seizure. In that moment of altered consciousness, his mind is flung into the consciousness of an alien entity, granting him a fleeting, hazy vision of a world beyond human comprehension. He awakens in a hospital bed, disoriented but with fragmented memories of his otherworldly experience. As Zach recovers, he pieces together the chilling truth: the aliens he glimpsed have been covertly monitoring Earth, viewing humanity's existence as a simulation. Eve's groundbreaking research into a new propulsion system, poised to finally enable human travel to Mars, has brought Earth to a critical juncture. Fearing that humanity's success will trigger the termination of their simulated reality, Zach becomes determined to prevent this outcome. His mission escalates from trying to halt Eve's research to a desperate, dangerous plan to dismantle the very company responsible, setting the stage for an explosive confrontation between creator and creation.
