Synopsis
Dawn breaks and the military has already lost the initiative: hundreds of colossal robots stand beside the world's major capitals, motionless, each paired with a naked human figure who cannot remember his own name. The ultimatum is brief—prove that human civilization is worth keeping, or watch it end. As governments reach for weapons, a young woman and a visitor slowly learning what feeling means look for an answer no general would consider. Modest in scale, cosmic in ambition, directed by C. Thomas Howell.
