The Tenth

About this film

A future where humanity edited reality so beautifully it forgot how to see the truth… until the truth became the only thing that could save them. Almost every human is born with a neural filter — an implant that smooths the world into something prettier. Dirt looks cleaner. Rot looks ripe. Poison looks like paradise. But a tiny fraction are born without it. The world calls them defective. Broken. The "unfiltered." The Tenth is one of them. When Earth's dying sun forces humanity to flee, ten scout ships are sent to ten possible new worlds. The first crew to confirm a safe planet decides where the last of humanity will live. On the tenth ship — buried in ancient protocol no one remembers the reason for — there must be one unfiltered human aboard. To the crew, he's dead weight. A living relic. A checkbox. Then they find it. A green, glowing, breathtaking world that scans as perfect. The crew sees a paradise worth dying for. The Tenth sees the faint, wrong shimmer of a planet that is quietly, beautifully lethal. And he's the only voice screaming that everyone is about to walk into a grave with a smile on their face. No one believes the broken man. Why would they? Their eyes show them heaven. To survive, humanity will have to do the one thing it forgot how to do — take off the rose-tinted glasses and face the ugly, terrifying truth… before paradise kills them all. One crew. One perfect planet. One man who can see the poison beneath the roses.
