Which side are you on?

A vision of the very-near future, where civil war has fractured the United States. You're sent into an insurgent-occupied city with a mission: learn the truth on the ground, make contact with the inner circle of the rebellion, and decide where you stand. I co-wrote the branching narrative and interactive structure for a story told in the first person, through choices with life-and-death stakes.

The experience premiered at the 2019 Tribeca Film Festival, with a live immersive theater wrap-around that placed players inside a military debriefing room before they entered VR.
