Logline

When a civilian cooling contractor develops inexplicable psychological symptoms at a next-generation AI data centre outside Sydney, forensic psychologist Dr. John Flemington is brought in to assess him — and is drawn into a covert Five Eyes program investigating consciousness, perception, and the buried legacy tied to the father he never knew.

RESONANCE
Limited Television Series | In Development

Resonance is a grounded psychological espionage thriller expanding the world of the award-winning short film Bonding.

Set against the emerging landscape of artificial intelligence infrastructure and classified consciousness research, the series follows forensic psychologist Dr. John Flemington as a routine evaluation draws him into a covert Five Eyes program operating beyond the boundaries of conventional science. As questions surrounding perception, secrecy, and human potential deepen, the investigation becomes inseparable from his own past.

Blending espionage, psychological drama, and existential mystery, Resonance unfolds through a restrained cinematic lens, exploring the hidden systems that shape belief, identity, and reality itself.

Clarification

Please note: Some early press materials referenced Dr. John Flemington as the son of James Bond. While this idea was briefly explored during early feature-film development and subtly alluded to in the short, it is not the creative direction of the series. We believe this association would distract from the originality and thematic integrity of Resonance.
