About this film

FOREVER INSIDE imagines a world in which the wealthy can leave ordinary life for a private simulated reality. Causality Labs uses this promise of permanent escape to explore freedom, isolation, and the meaning of a life shared with others.

Synopsis

Personal Vaults allow their owners to enter simulated realities with no way back. Some choose to leave the shared world while young; others wait until the end of life. When the founder of SENET offers a Vault to an ordinary person who does not want one, an apparently extraordinary gift becomes a confrontation over desire, consent, and irreversible choices.
