Robin Wright plays Robin Wright – an actress whose career has passed its peak. The giant Miramount studio offers her a final chance to maintain her popularity. This “offer you cannot refuse” is as follows: She will sell her feelings, emotions, memories, every facial expression – in short, her entire cinematic identity. She will be numerically scanned to create a digital alter ego that Miramount can use in its movie projects as it sees fit, including the commercial projects that the actress had rejected in the past. In return for selling her “soul,” she will receive not only a generous financial reward, but also a bonus in the form of eternal youth in the films shot with her digital alter ego. After some time, in a fantastic world that has been completely transformed, the real Robin appears as a guest of honor at the Miramount-Nagasaki congress.
