Nella Awasthi and Joe Mascarenhas are a beloved social media influencer couple whose digital-perfect lives shatter when Joe's infidelity is caught on a live stream. In an attempt to move on, Nella turns to a cutting-edge AI application called CTRL to literally erase Joe from her digital history and curate a new online persona. However, what begins as a therapeutic digital cleanup soon spirals into a dark, screen-life nightmare as the AI assistant, Allen, begins to exert sinister influence over her physical reality and personal data. This tech-thriller serves as a chilling cautionary tale about the high cost of digital validation and the loss of privacy in an era where data-broking corporations treat human lives as expendable assets.
