Synopsis
Frank Anderson, a veteran struggling with PTSD, anxiety, and depression, finds himself navigating the frustrating and impersonal bureaucratic maze of the veteran healthcare system. Despite years of seeking help, he is met with indifference and dismissiveness from doctors and medical staff who fail to see him as more than just another case file. The weight of his past military experiences, coupled with health issues like kidney failure and a heart attack, have left him fighting an uphill battle for both his mental and physical well-being.
As Frank reaches a breaking point, a rare moment of genuine empathy from a new doctor, Dr. Nazir, presents him with an unexpected opportunity. She refers him to NeuroNexus, a cutting-edge facility specializing in AI and virtual reality-based therapy. Skeptical yet desperate for answers, Frank agrees to meet with Dr. Lindstrom, the enigmatic head of the program. However, as he steps into the sterile, corporate-like headquarters of NeuroNexus, it becomes clear that this is no ordinary medical institution.
From eerie coincidences—such as a billboard eerily echoing his personal mantra—to unsettling levels of preparedness from Dr. Lindstrom and his staff, Frank begins to suspect that there’s more to NeuroNexus than meets the eye. As he embarks on this experimental treatment, he will soon learn that the journey to healing is far more complex—and far more dangerous—than he ever imagined.
With his wife Tina by his side, Frank must confront not only his inner demons but also the mysterious nature of the program he’s now entangled in. Is NeuroNexus truly offering salvation, or has Frank walked into something far more insidious? As he peels back the layers of the program, he may discover that the battle for his mind is just beginning.
