Synopsis

A reclusive farmer, Cal, discovers a wounded android hidden in his fields. Sympathetic to her plight, he offers the runaway robot, Khloe, shelter while he repairs her.
As they isolate themselves from the world, their relationship blossoms, and they begin to uncover each other’s humanity.
However, their fragile sanctuary is threatened. Khloe is being relentlessly hunted by her creators, and Cal is being haunted by his past and a dangerous deal he made.
With their worlds on a violent collision course, the two realise that survival requires more than just hiding.
This is not a science fiction story. This is a violent love story.
