Synopsis
In a near-future world where gig workers compete with AI and robots while relying on designer drugs to enhance their performance, a terrorist group called the Machinehood demands equal rights for all intelligent beings — human and artificial alike. When her teammate is killed, bodyguard Welga Ramirez infiltrates the movement and discovers truths that challenge the boundary between human and machine.
