THE GREAT C - Best VR Film at the 2020 Cannes XR Awards — The Great C News

Based on the science fiction short story by American writer Philip K. Dick (The Man in the High Castle, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? – the inspiration behind Blade Runner), The Great C is a cinematic virtual reality narrative set in the aftermath of an apocalyptic event.

Years after a catastrophic incident, a powerful AI driven supercomputer called the Great C rules over the remnants of humanity. Each year a nearby village is forced to send a young person on a pilgrimage to “report” to the Great C – a journey from which no one ever returns.

The Great C follows Clare, a young woman who finds her life upended when her fiancé is summoned for this year’s pilgrimage. Forced to leave the safe confines of her village, Clare must now decide whether to accept the rules of this harsh society or fight against the oppressive reality of her world.
