• Animation
• Science Fiction

In the dystopian future of Latimer, *Altered Carbon: Resleeved* distinguishes itself from typical cyberpunk thrillers with its striking anime aesthetic and focus on the intricate, often brutal, world of digitally-preserved consciousness. The narrative unfolds as Takeshi Kovacs, a former Envoy, is drawn into a neo-noir investigation surrounding the murder of a powerful yakuza leader, its intensity heightened by his uneasy alliance with a pragmatic CTAC operative and the protection of a reclusive tattooist whose art holds crucial secrets. Beyond the visually arresting action sequences, the film delves into the philosophical implications of "sleeving"—the transfer of consciousness between bodies—exploring themes of identity continuity, corporate control, and the inherent value of a life unbound by mortality, presenting a chilling exploration of digital immortality’s cost.
