Logline
Sorina, Dracula’s daughter, has outlived seven centuries of human brilliance and cruelty. When AI researcher Julian Decker plants an AI chip to mine her for information their interrogation becomes a duel over humanity’s fate.

Synopsis
Sorina wakes up with her mind hijacked by an AI device that brings her into a virtual reality with its creator Julian Decker. Julian has been encouraged by the pope to find Sorina – Dracula’s 700 year old daughter – to get her moral approval of this new powerful technology. As Sorina is a witness to  centuries of humanity Julian enters her mind to safely have a conversation. What begins as an interrogation, doesn’t stay one. The two of them become a debate staged in flesh and memory. Sorina asks whether a species that can’t stop destroying itself has earned its place in the future. He answers that artificial intelligence isn’t the end of us but the next chapter of who we are. Memory bleeds into simulation, and simulation into the room they’re sitting in. Who holds the power shifts, then shifts again. By the end, it’s no longer clear where Sorina stops and Julian begins and what price humanity will pay for it.
