A dead body in the river unleashes a waterfall of surreal connections among gritty reality, sterile fantasy and a thrilling crime spree cover up. What seemed a clear case of suicide becomes even more absurd when the corpse of another employee is found. They are all connected via an experimental neuroscience laboratory. Detectives follow leads pointing toward the arrogant and ambitious, Nobel Prize-winning lead scientist and mentor of the second victim. In a winding patchwork of leads toward murder, accident, accomplices, motive and ego we enter a world of futurism – how humans are increasingly augmented or even replaced by machines. What is the price a human life?
