Alone at Night

Alone at Night is a VR journey through a seemingly safe city, but through the triggered eyes of a young woman who sees everything as a heightened threat.

Combining traditional cinematic storytelling techniques in an empathy-demanding VR world, Alone at Night is developed to tell a linear story with the uniquely heightened emotional impact of VR. “Alone at Night” allows you to walk next to our protagonist, Emma, and to see the world as she does.

The project is a collaboration between seasoned Finnish filmmakers, Handle Productions, and pioneering VR experts from Teatime Research.
