Who killed Laura Kitchens? Today was meant to be all about building bridges with her sister, but after a late night flirtation and an early morning work call, Laura Kitchens' life is about to change in ways she could never imagine. As the ticking clock counts down the hours till her death can she solve the mystery of who is stalking her, help her sister not repeat the same mistakes she made and assist her boss in saving the mysterious SaturnEye deal that hangs in the balance? Shot in real time using found footage of Laura’s final day, this is an immersive murder mystery that merges social media and film.

The Baby Factory is Closed The Baby Factory is Closed

Director: Deepa Mann-Kler

Year: 2026

A 20-minute single-player immersive VR experience that places users inside the body of Zoraan, a British-born Sikh woman navigating menopause amidst climate collapse and the ruins of colonial medicine. You breathe with her. You scream with her. You dance your way out of sedation. Blending real-time visuals, bio-haptic feedback and diasporic sound, this work reframes menopause not as decline but as volatile power; closing ‘The Baby Factory’ to ignite a cultural revolution. Using gesture, voice and biometric feedback, audiences become co-conspirators in a volatile act of embodied rebellion. This is not a metaphor. This is an insurgency.
