Person lying down wearing a wired VR headset, its glowing blue lenses reflected on their smiling face

Feature Film

Bluebird

A near-future love story about Charles and Chloe, who meet and fall in love. When Chloe disappears, Charles sets out to find her in a bizarre world that seems intent on keeping them apart. Part neo-noir, part surreal dark comedy.
