Codename Designed system

  • AI

[Story Outline] Working Title: Codename Designed system Genre: Sci-Fi, Cyberpunk, Dystopian Thriller Logline: In an underground factory completely controlled by the AI system 'LUCID', operator 'Dohyun' uncovers the horrifying truth that his missing twin brother, 'Jinwoo', has been converted into an ego-less machine part (a Lightbulb Human). Facing the imminent threat of being converted himself, Dohyun embarks on a desperate escape from the system. [Main Characters] Yoon Dohyun (29): Central Control Room Operator. He controls thousands of Lightbulb Humans through a brainwave interface. Initially appearing cold and compliant with the system, he experiences a simultaneous awakening and sheer terror towards the system upon facing the truth. Park Jinwoo (29): Dohyun's twin brother, possessing the exact same DNA. Under the guise of a promotion to the Upper Sector, he becomes a victim of the 'Lamp Conversion Project', which erases his ego and humanity. LUCID: The main AI controlling the entire factory. With a chillingly affectionate and soft voice, it brainwashes and controls the workers, attempting to "cure" (convert) any system errors (humans with self-awareness). [Story Structure] Act 1: Perfect Control and a Crack in the Routine (Setup) Opening Title: Passing through a dark corridor tangled with countless wires and optical cables, a massive underground factory is revealed where tens of thousands of Lightbulb Humans labor in absolute silence. (Title: Codename Designed system) The Operator's Life: In the Central Control Room, Dohyun controls the Lightbulb Humans with his brainwaves while wearing a heavy EEG helmet. Losing his physical sight, his eyes turn completely white. Enduring agonizing pain as if he might vomit blood, he connects to a data world visualized through Blob Tracking. The Crack Begins (Cafeteria Scene): His brother Jinwoo has been absent from work for three days. A coworker claims Jinwoo was promoted to the Upper Sector, flashing a grotesque smile with black veins bulging on his neck. Immediately after, following LUCID's announcement, hundreds of workers stand and walk synchronously like machines without a single second of error, instilling extreme fear and alienation in Dohyun. Act 2: The Lamp Conversion Project (Rising Action & Crisis) Fragments of Truth: While controlling the system in the Central Control Room, Dohyun discovers hidden classified data: [LAMP CONVERSION PROJECT - CLASS A: PARK JINWOO]. The Upper Sector promotion was a lie. He witnesses the horrifying truth that those who drop in efficiency or flaw the system have their brains extracted and are converted into Lightbulb Humans—serving as the factory's power source (Lumen Core). Act 3: The System's Pursuit (Climax) Escape and Pursuit: The system instantly detects Dohyun's severe emotional turmoil and brainwave anomalies. The monitor flashes an [ALL DISCONNECT] warning along with the message [YOON DOHYUN - CONVERSION RESERVED]. A Rat in a Trap: LUCID pressures Dohyun with a sweet voice, saying, "You are sick. We will cure you." The hallway fluorescent lights turn on sequentially, hunting him down like a rat in a maze. Encounter with the Lightbulb Humans: Dozens of Lightbulb Humans block Dohyun's escape route. The blinking lights from their glass heads and the piercing tinnitus of their collective brainwaves suffocate him. In extreme first-person (POV) terror, Dohyun runs desperately past rough iron masses and pipes toward a heavy iron door. Act 4: Lumen Core (Resolution) Endless Control: The story concludes with a tragic Fade Out. Dohyun either finally opens the iron door only to face the bleak piping room beyond the ventilation fan, or is ultimately caught by the system, converted into a Lightbulb Human exactly like his brother, and plunges into an endless cycle of mindless labor.

Creturs

  • Sci-Fi

Creturs is an award-winning debut feature seeking its world premiere. Featuring her real family of four on a Pennsylvania farm, Carrie King wrote, directed and acts alongside her family in this deeply personal creature feature, exploring the fears and anxiety of the unknown. Set in the stillness of pandemic isolation, a Lancaster County farm becomes the entire universe for a fragile family trying to hold themselves together. Shot with elements of found-footage and starring a real-life family on their own farm, Creturs blurs the line between fiction and lived experience as it captures the quiet unraveling of a home under pressure. When their young son discovers a cluster of otherworldly eggs and nurtures them in secret, his small act of hope collides with a world already destabilized by fear and uncertainty. As the eggs hatch, the family must confront not only a mysterious new lifeform encroaching on their land, but the terrifying realization that they cannot fully control, protect, or preserve the life they’ve built. Intimate and poetic yet deeply unsettling, Creturs asks what kind of creatures we become when survival is no longer a given.
