In a dystopian society where emotions are monitored and suppressed, Amir, a weary Rank B factory worker, struggles to maintain his composure under a regime designed to erase humanity’s most basic instincts. Suffering from a terminal illness treatable only in Rank A, Amir walks a tightrope between emotional regulation and survival. He relies on Saber, a seemingly supportive AI companion, to stay within the system’s limits. With a life-changing promotion and access to treatment just two hours away, Amir is closer than ever to salvation. But when a sudden power outage traps him in an elevator, panic overtakes him—and the emotional spike costs him everything. He’s demoted to Rank C and assigned the most demeaning task imaginable: cleaning the underground archives. There, amid layers of dust and despair, Amir hears laughter echoing through the corridors and discovers the No Signal Room—a secret haven where emotional gauges fail and true expression becomes possible. Within this hidden rebellion, led by the enigmatic Hussain, Amir experiences connection, joy, and emotional freedom for the first time. But liberation comes at a price. When ambition and survival collide, Amir must choose: remain loyal or save himself. ‘The Last Laugh’ explores the power of emotions, the cost of freedom, and what it means to preserve one’s humanity in an unforgiving world.
