Witness a vision of the techno-philosophical future from Terry Gilliam, the visionary director of BRAZIL, 12 MONKEYS, and FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS. Qohen Leth (2-time Academy Award winner Christoph Waltz) is a computer genius plagued with existential angst. Eccentric and reclusive, he lives in a burnt-out church, toiling on a top-secret project personally assigned by Management (Matt Damon) - to discover the meaning of life. If there is one. His supervisor (David Thewlis) is unstable. He doesn't trust his digital therapist, Dr. Shrink-Rom (Tilda Swinton). And his budding romance with Bainsley (Melanie Thierry) involves webcams, wired-up bodysuits, and the universe. Is the secret to happiness losing your mind?
