Summary
Raphael is a fully AI-produced sci-fi action drama about an android created for war who develops an interest in religion and begins to question the concepts of the soul and redemption.
Alexei, a war android modeled after a dictator’s younger self, meets Michael, the last Catholic priest, during a mission to suppress a rebellion. Through this encounter, he becomes curious about faith and starts to question his own existence. He then becomes a double agent, making dangerous choices as he tests the boundaries between belief, identity, and what it means to be human.
Built around philosophical themes and narrative depth, Raphael is an IP designed for expansion across film and series.
