Plot synopsis
Moscow, in the near future. Humans share their daily lives with robots. Georgy, a forensic scientist assisted by one of them, finds himself in spite of himself involved in the first murder committed by an experimental humanoid of a new kind. Sophisticated aesthetics, neat script, an astonishing Russian series with the ethical questioning characteristic of tales of anticipation.
