“Of all the abductions, this one is different.”

Science FictionThrillerComedy

Two conspiracy obsessed young men kidnap the high-powered CEO of a major company, convinced that she is an alien intent on destroying planet Earth.

VIBE

A disorienting, darkly comedic thrill ride steeped in paranoia and absurdism. It feels like a fever dream of escalating tension, where societal anxieties are twisted into a satirical, unsettling vision. The experience is both thought-provoking and wildly unpredictable, challenging perceptions with its unique blend of sci-fi and social critique.
