After a rogue faction seizes control of a remote settlement and takes a family hostage, a seasoned officer defies protocol and assembles a small team of trusted friends to bring them home. With official systems paralyzed by politics and inaction, the group launches a covert operation to infiltrate enemy territory. What awaits them is a volatile landscape-not just physically, but morally-where every step challenges their unity, strength, and resolve. Advanced technology, cloaked threats, and the psychological weight of past failures test them as they race against time. As the team journeys across Enceladus's sunlit valleys, urban remnants, and hostile outposts, they must rely on their bond and training to survive. Each member brings unique skills, but it's their shared purpose that fuels their mission through the chaos. Blending emotionally grounded storytelling with cinematic visual effects, Retrieval is a sci-fi short film that explores the meaning of sacrifice, friendship, and the relentless fight for those we love-no matter how far we must go.
