A message from the Director and Producer

PROJECT OMMI tackles a very difficult question. It asks, is it inhumane to exploit human-like A.I for our own benefit? Especially when the A.I. entity, is a child. It’s a dilemma we will all face, once thinking and feeling robots become part of our everyday lives. PROJECT OMMI is a timely, prescient socially-conscious sci-fi thriller. It offers a stunningly clever insight into one of the most compelling moral dilemmas of our time: the duty we owe to the A.I machines we create. They are thinking. They may soon be able to feel. How responsible should we be for what happens to them?
