Synopsis:
Living in a dystopian city destroyed by giant cockroaches and war, a young man must destroy the cockroaches’ base in order to reclaim his city. When he sets out on his mission, however, the ruined city begins to glitch into a utopian version of itself, full of sunshine and happy people. Lost in the blurred lines between reality and illusion, the man must choose between his quest or trusting the mysterious stranger who claims he is from this peaceful version of the city.
