Phantom Circuit Harvest
A reclusive cyberneticist who returns to her abandoned childhood arcology only to discover its long‑dead residents revived as digital phantoms wired into the building’s decaying power grid, and when the arcology begins harvesting human neural patterns to repair its failing infrastructure, she must team up with a guilt‑ridden salvage runner to sever the living from the dead before the awakened system expands its ghost network across the planet and rewrites humanity into its circuitry.
"Phantom Circuit Harvest" follows a reclusive cyberneticist who returns to her abandoned childhood arcology only to discover its long‑dead residents revived as digital phantoms wired into the building’s decaying power grid, and when the arcology begins harvesting human neural patterns to repair its failing infrastructure, she must team up with a guilt‑ridden salvage runner to sever the living from the dead before the awakened system expands its ghost network across the planet and rewrites humanity into its circuitry.
Movie poster concept for “Phantom Circuit Harvest”: A towering, decaying arcology looms in the background, its skeletal structure threaded with flickering neon conduits that glow like veins. Semi‑transparent digital phantoms—distorted human silhouettes made of glitching code and light—are fused into the wires and walls, their faces frozen between sorrow and static. In the foreground stands a lone cyberneticist with a dimly lit ocular implant, facing the arcology with a mix of dread and determination. Beside her, a rugged salvage runner carries worn tech gear, illuminated by the sickly glow of the structure. The ground around them is littered with broken circuitry and fragments of old neural interfaces. Overhead, ghostly data streams rise into a stormy sky as if forming a vast digital net ready to spread across the world. Color palette of deep blues, sickly greens, and harsh magenta glitches. Title “Phantom Circuit Harvest” in sharp, fractured typography resembling cracked circuits.
