The year 2048. A young scientist, George, who works for a corporation in a secret laboratory somewhere in the Japanese forests, is developing artificial intelligence, while simultaneously assembling an innovative robot into which he intends to upload the consciousness of his deceased wife. For now, her consciousness is stored in a large black cabinet, the so‑called Archive, but the three‑year storage period is coming to an end, so George is in a hurry to complete his project.
