About the film:
The year is 3084, and space still holds many secrets. Project Delta was conceived in order to establish a dialogue between intergalactic civilizations. Soon after the alien journalist Alma boards the spaceship, she and the captain noticed that the ship’s AI could act by itself, exploring areas of human emotions with disastrous results.
