Clara’s world begins to close in as her AI-generated romance turns into a waking nightmare. Cut off from support and with nowhere left to hide, she must face the consequences of a fantasy programmed to love her at any cost. 9 1/2 Weeks meets Terminator in ARTIFICIAL, the new erotic thriller by acclaimed creator Maria Llovet (Crave, Violent Flowers, All The Things We Didn't Do Last Night).
As a first experience with Llovet's work, I'm definitely keen to see what they do next. The series could have been expanded a good bit with a lot more to explore, but it's basically a Twilight Zone episode with more sex to it. Okay, so it's a Black Mirror-type story. Either way, it's solidly good stuff with a great-looking artist in how they portray characters, movement, and just the overall aesthetic. It's a tight and solid work that I'm sure reads better in full within one setting with more tension, and I'm already envious of those that will be able to do that. Worth checking out.
