In a not-so-distant future, a brilliant scientist from New York, Dr. John Morrow, embarks on a risky experiment that will push the boundaries of life and death. Following a tragic accident that costs him his life, his obsessed daughter, who cannot accept the loss, joins her father in an audacious project: the installation of his consciousness into a mechanical colossus. This imposing metallic figure, designed to resemble a human, comes to life with Morrow's memories and knowledge, but at a terrifying price.
As the Colossus begins to navigate the streets of New York, it initially appears to be a marvel of science that could help humanity. However, it soon becomes a lonely and melancholic being, struggling to find its place in a world it no longer understands. The creation is caught in an internal conflict between its programming and its human memories, triggering chaos in the city.
As its creators and society try to deal with the consequences, the Colossus becomes a symbol of the struggle between science and ethics. The story unfolds with a tone of tragedy and reflection, raising questions about the nature of existence, human connection, and the cost of progress. Along the way, the bond between father and daughter is explored, and how love can sometimes unleash the darkest secrets of creation.
