In the film, the SCP Foundation is responsible for capturing, containing and studying supernatural objects and creatures for the protection of the entire human race. Omar serves as one of the expendable human test subjects utilized to study dangerous entities of interest.

While Omar is unable to remember much about his life prior to his imprisonment or what act he could have done to lead him here, he believes that one mysterious figure from his past may be the key to finding out why he was incarcerated
