A 1984 sci-fi film that treats telepathy not as a superpower but as the weight of hearing everyone's fear at once. The future it builds feels lived-in and exhausted, not shiny. This is a film made by people who believed the world was already breaking, and it never apologizes for that coldness.

In 2500, a supercomputer on the Tolphan system's fifth planet decides who marries whom, seeking the most compatible pairings.
