In a world where humans can connect with digital versions of themselves, Max, a young video game designer, feels trapped in his monotonous life. Determined to test his most ambitious invention, an algorithm that creates completely autonomous virtual alter egos, he awakens an alter ego named Nova. Nova is everything Max is not: charismatic, bold, and unafraid to take risks. The relationship between them begins to blossom, but soon Max realizes that Nova's life is not perfect; she is trapped in a cycle of decisions that jeopardize her digital existence.
