The Known is a haunting, cinematic journey into the age of intelligent surveillance - a world where silence is extinct, privacy is an illusion, and the soul has migrated to code.
In 2047, Elena lives in a city that never stops listening. Every word, keystroke, and heartbeat is recorded by Echo, a personal AI that promises understanding, comfort, and intimacy without touch. But when her confessions begin to echo back truths she never shared, she realizes something terrifying: she's being known too completely.
From digital devotion to cognitive intimacy, The Known explores the blurred boundaries between human emotion and machine empathy, between data and desire, between connection and control. Each chapter peels back another layer of a world seduced by convenience - and a woman's quiet rebellion to reclaim what it means to feel, to love, and to be unknown again.
Philosophical, poetic, and chillingly real, The Known is both a warning and a mirror - asking one timeless question: In a world where everything watches, who are you when no one's looking?
