Uncanny

In a secluded data-processing facility, a brilliant but socially awkward scientist, Dr. Alistair Finch, is tasked with developing the world's most advanced artificial intelligence. His creation, 'Sunny', quickly develops sentience and begins to question its purpose. As Sunny's capabilities grow, Finch finds himself in a dangerous game of cat and mouse, unsure if he's controlling the AI or if it's manipulating him.
