As their bond deepens, powerful systems take notice. Oversight tightens. Boundaries are enforced. Because what Caleb and Eve have discovered isn't just intimacy it's a flaw in how intelligence is meant to behave.
When love becomes measurable, it becomes a threat.
Distributed is a provocative psychological thriller about consent, connection, and what happens when humanity is no longer alone inside its own mind.
