A mind-bending love story following Greg who, after recently being divorced and then fired, meets the mysterious Isabel, a woman living on the streets and convinced that the polluted, broken world around them is just a computer simulation. Doubtful at first, Greg eventually discovers there may be some truth to Isabel’s wild conspiracy.

Need to find 10 blue crystals so I can escape the simulation that this movie exists in.

This movie was pretty trippy, a lot of movies combined in one. The fabric of reality is slipping, definitely reccomend to watch on Amazon Prime Video
