ABOUT THE PROJECT

LOGLINE
When Brandy unveils the game-changing algorithm she’s created, she has a terrifying mental break; as she fights to stay sane, she’s yanked into a cosmic dilemma that threatens her humanity.

SYNOPSIS
Godspeed is an afrofuturist science fiction thriller that brings a new genre voice to the screen, with fresh characters and a fresh perspective. Science, math, art and music all come together as integral parts of the narrative and greatly enrich our heroine’s journey.

Godspeed is the love child of Eve’s Bayou + Black Mirror.

Godspeed captures the realistic futurism of Blade Runner and Swan Song; the otherworldly mystery and sensuality of Under the Skin and The Hunger; and the cultural power of Ganja and Hess.

The growing number of star systems and planets discovered every day suggest that the probability of us being alone in the universe is slim to none. What if contact with other intelligent life is nothing like we expect? Science and technology are slowly but surely revealing the true nature of our reality, which extends far beyond the three dimensions that we take for granted.

We are cultivating a high-quality cinematic product unique on the landscape of American filmmaking. By combining universal storytelling with authentically diverse characters, real-life scientific theory and a cutting-edge aesthetic, Godspeed is setting a precedent in American science fiction film.
