Trial and Error

Overview

An imaginative scientific movie offers room of reflection. In a futuristic world, everything sticks to “rules”. Operators monitor same computers and do routine work as they are told to; nothing more, nothing less. On the other end, an imprisoned young man repeatedly kills himself in a single cell. This man turns to be a “bug” which might endanger the whole “system”. One day, the suicide programme is activated again, and operator Alpha is called to take care of it. Things lost control all of a sudden and Alpha is seized. Infected and reprogrammed, is life all about endless trials and errors?
