End of the Rope

Abstract

End of the Rope is a sci-fi drama about an injured dancer's journey towards self-empowerment. After being crippled by a car accident, a former dancer enters a power struggle with an exploitative scientist who promises her creative freedom in an altered reality with his invention. End of the Rope contributes to debates on issues of power, control, sexual abuse in virtual reality, and the use of immersive technology in creativity and existentialist psychology.
