The Residence

Clarissa, a novelist struggling with creative block, joins a prestigious residency renowned for its use of cutting-edge technology to assist artists. There, she begins her new work with the help of Dalloway, an advanced artificial intelligence system. But as her novel takes shape, the line between creation and control begins to blur, raising unsettling questions about authorship, ambition, and the limits of human imagination.

Adapted from the roman « Les fleurs de l’ombre » by Tatiana de Rosnay published by Robert Laffont editions.
