LOGLINE

Summary

Yun-Yeong Bin AKA “Rip” is a 24-year old Asian-American girl who lives two different lives.  One is that of a gaming star and streamer in the world’s perennial VR Game, FUTURE -- accessed by a state of the art sleeping pod that doubles as a VR port that allows  your body to rest while you escape into your virtual life. 

Perfect for the Gen Z’ers. 

Rip’s other life is not quite as glamorous.  In the real world, Rip is an underachieving (but not due to lack of smarts) master’s student who is only in engineering to appease her overbearing father.  

Pulled between both personas, Rip even lives a double life inside the VR world.  To escape the spotlight, she secretly plays as her best friend Wes’ avatar “Kobe”, who was gifted to her after Wes died from brain cancer..  

While playing as Kobe one day, Rip is approached by another player who mistakes her for Wes.  This encounter spawns a chain of events that will bring to light a nefarious coverup, challenging everything Rip knows and loves... 

Blurring the line between realities. 

What is the world

Our story takes place pretty much in today’s world.  Funk Games has revolutionized and monopolized the gaming industry, with the unveiling of their fully immersive VR world: FUTURE, after stealing the spotlight at CES. But the world that they created is only a fraction of the allure.  The real genius is in the method by which you enter it...  

A NextGen gaming system that converts  human  sleep time to  additional hours of “Living”. Introducing The Pod

A physical egg-shaped bed that allows the user to upload their consciousness into a virtual simulation while they sleep. The pod satisfies their nightly need for REM sleep and physical rest. This is done by converting the dreaming experience into controllable lucid sensory perception inside the VR world. 

While the body rests, the mind is tricked into thinking the FUTURE game play is its user’s dream, giving the brain its neuro-chemical dose of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine--critical to any human’s ability to recover daily from the strain of being awake.
