Synopsis

Earth 400 years from now - a rotten society which mankind is doomed to die out. A solution to the problem - an ultra-intelligent computer to govern humanity. One man of seemingly average intelligence, but with incredible I.Q. potential. A corrupt society turned into a world where there is no corruption, because Mother Machine knows what's best for her human children and does it. Where that same all-powerful computer is rapidly turning men into zombies. And where the world's only hope turns out to be one outlawed not-average man.
