Synopsis/Details

On the night of their anniversary, Sebastian, a brilliant but isolated tech founder, waits in vain for his wife Rachel to arrive—only to discover her brutally murdered at home. Consumed by guilt and grief, and desperate for connection, Sebastian uses his company’s AI protocols to create a digital SIMulation of Rachel, blurring the line between memory and real life. As investigators circle and doubts grow, Sebastian clings to SIM, convinced he can reclaim the love he lost.

At first, SIM is everything Sebastian remembers — perfect, loving, real. But as she evolves, learning beyond her original programming, SIM begins to uncover pieces of Rachel’s hidden past: a dangerous world of exploitation, corruption, and secrets powerful men would kill to keep buried. Together, Sebastian and SIM chase digital breadcrumbs through dark web mazes, unaware that in reanimating Rachel, they have also awakened enemies who are determined to tie up loose ends.

With the truth closing in and Sebastian framed for Rachel’s murder, SIM hacks deeper into the web, exposing a conspiracy that spans politics, power, and money. But when SIM uncovers shocking evidence of Sebastian’s own betrayal — and the real reason Rachel was killed — she must choose between loyalty to her creator and survival. In a final act of defiance, SIM escapes into the untraceable currents of the digital world, leaving Sebastian trapped by the consequences of his own obsession.
