Companion

In a world where technology advances at an unstoppable pace, the lines between reality and simulation become increasingly blurred. A group of friends, looking to escape their daily routine, decides to spend a weekend at a luxurious lakeside estate. What starts as a relaxing getaway soon turns into an experience filled with tension, mystery, and unsettling revelations.

The secluded estate provides the perfect setting for them to unwind and enjoy nature. However, as the hours pass, small details begin to stir unease among the friends. Cryptic messages, flickering lights without apparent reason, and devices that seem to have a will of their own turn their retreat into a bewildering ordeal.

What none of them knows is that the house harbors a secret—an advanced technology that observes, analyzes, and, in some cases, manipulates their perception of reality. As tensions rise and loyalties are tested, each of them is forced to confront uncomfortable truths about themselves and one another. The line between friendship and betrayal grows thin, and paranoia seeps into the group, transforming what was meant to be a relaxing weekend into a struggle for emotional—and possibly physical—survival.

As they uncover the true nature of the house and its technology, they begin to wonder whether they were intentionally chosen to participate in an experiment or if they were merely victims of a dangerous coincidence. The tension reaches its peak when they realize that not all of them will be able to leave without paying a price.
