Altered: A Dancehall Queen is a psychological sci-fi drama centred around identity and the price of survival in a world where an emerging technology can read the human body as data, allowing users to realize their self-actualized/best lives. The film follows a single rupture in the system as the technology begins to interpret and reflect, triggering a butterfly effect that reveals the movements, duality, and fragmented self within its creator.
