Project Power

• Action
• Crime
• Science Fiction

In a near-future New Orleans saturated by a black market pill granting random, temporary superpowers, a disillusioned former soldier seeking redemption, a desperate young dealer aiming to provide for his mother, and a pragmatic police officer haunted by past failures find their lives inextricably linked. This isn’t a superhero origin story, but a gritty, street-level crime film investigating the volatile consequences of unchecked power and the desperation it breeds. The film’s uniqueness lies in its deconstruction of the superhero mythos; powers are unpredictable, often debilitating, and drive characters toward chaotic, self-destructive choices rather than heroism. The narrative unfolds as a tense, procedural investigation interwoven with intensely personal struggles for control and purpose within a system designed for exploitation, culminating in a morally ambiguous confrontation that exposes the true cost of amplified ability.
