Syhthetika is a sequel film trilogy to Stephan Zlotescu’s acclaimed short film True Skin released in 2013. The story is set a hundred years later from where True Skin left off.

This dystopian future has become dominated by AI overlords, the souls of humans are trafficked and forcibly transferred into humanoid bodies, manipulated by their unscrupulous owners.

Zero, a remarkable soulbot, forges an unlikely alliance with a compassionate human mentor who imparts the skills necessary for survival in this cruel world. Guided through the treacherous path of underground fighting arenas, Zero not only discovers the strength within himself but also unravels the memories that were once suppressed.

As Zero ascends the ranks as a formidable fighter, he grapples with a haunting revelation—someone he cares deeply about is on the brink of suffering the same tragic fate. Now armed with newfound memories and a determination to break free from the oppressive system, Zero must confront his own past to save a loved one and defy the sinister forces controlling their destinies.
