In a surveillance-saturated world where sports have become the last theater of truth, Elias Rocha thought he could still find integrity in the rules. As the nation's most revered referee, he's not just calling the shots-he's broadcasting trust to millions. But when a sudden on-field collapse leads to a dangerous cover-up, Elias is thrust into a psychological spiral where the boundary between loyalty and complicity begins to blur.
Haunted by shifting memories, contradictory footage, and the manipulated silence of former allies, Elias begins to question not just the players-but the very game itself. His pursuit of answers takes him into the depths of a state-controlled spectacle where dissent is manufactured and memory is programmable.
With every whistle he blows, the stakes grow darker. Every decision isolates him further. The more Elias digs, the less he recognizes himself-or the truth he once stood for.
Was this ever about the match? Or was the match always about him?
In a world where performance replaces memory, can a man rewrite his role-or is he already just a character in someone else's ending?
What if the only way to resist... is to vanish?
