The Fix is a science-fiction and action feature film directed and written by Kelsey Egan. Exclusively available on Paramount+, it will be released in France starting January 15, 2026. Led by Grace Van Dien, alongside Aidan Scott, Chris Fisher, and Nicole Fortuin, the movie explores a dystopian world where controlling vital resources becomes a tool for political and economic dominance.
In a near future, clean air is no longer a shared resource. It’s monopolized by Aethera, an all-powerful multinational corporation that controls access to oxygen. Ella McPhee, a corporate model and human face of the company, finds her world turned upside down after taking an experimental drug meant to boost human capabilities.
The substance drastically alters her body, granting her superhuman strength, enhanced agility, and physical abilities reminiscent of an insect. Quickly seen as a threat, Ella becomes Aethera’s target and must run for her life. She soon joins a clandestine resistance network, determined to expose the corporation’s secrets and break its hold.
The official trailer will be uploaded as soon as it’s released by Paramount+.
During her flight from capture, Ella gradually learns to control her newfound powers and redefine who she is. The film delves into the transformation of a body once used as a tool, turning it into a symbol of rebellion, set in a world where survival hinges on a resource that has been commodified. The story blends action, physical mutations, and a critique of corporate excesses, all within a visual universe defined by oppression and constant surveillance.
With The Fix, Kelsey Egan continues exploring themes of control, exploitation, and resistance—topics that have been increasingly prominent in recent trends within contemporary science fiction. The tone is boldly direct, appealing to fans of dystopian stories, futuristic action films, and socially conscious sci-fi, where individual freedom clashes with oppressive, all-encompassing systems.
