Flicker: the one who stayed

A high school student named Elias, who falls in love with a girl named Amara—a seemingly normal classmate with an intriguing, mysterious vibe. Over time, Elias discovers that Amara isn’t just a student—she’s a clone or synthetic human, part of a secret AI-human hybrid experiment led by the powerful and corrupt scientist Mason Grant.

As Elias and Amara grow closer, they uncover the truth: Amara is just one version of many. She was created as a backup copy of a previous girl—the Original Amara, who was built to serve, obey, and never feel.

But this Amara is different. She develops emotions, autonomy, and falls in love—especially with Elias.

As the truth unfolds, they’re pulled into a dangerous mission to take down Mason and destroy the system that created her. The lab, the government, and rogue AI all converge in a final race against time, where one of them must stay behind to stop the AI system from destroying everything.

In the end, Amara sacrifices herself…
Or so Elias believes.

Until she returns one final time, not fully human, not fully machine—but a flicker of the love that survived the flames.
