It was the year 2035, a year of prosperity for the United States and a new way of life for the entire world – a world where humans and their machines work together. However, these machines – made of gears and wires, metal skeletal system and computer chips – take a completely new form. Disguised with rubber skin and prosthetic hair that feels real to the touch, and a fake perfection that makes everyone envious. They are beautiful and godlike if they could ever be – like any human would want to be. They have acquired the name Humocon, meaning humanoid computer. Designed by a scientist who wanted these robotic creatures for those who are disabled, unable to do many things without the help of someone else, they were created for only the truly needy.
But many soon begged the scientist, Dr. Drew Moore (Harrison Ford), to make these computers for everyone. And so he did. He gave these computers more then just helpful features, but also a chip to surf the high-speed internet without plugging them in, much like a computer themselves. Able to acquire knowledge with incredible ease all with a simple command – search for.... Able to give an entire dictionary explanation and read a book without flipping pages, they replaced many of our everyday needs.
This drove many into rebellion.
Those who enjoyed the life of sitting back and reading, or using a laptop were no longer allowed to with the Humocons. Laptops were no longer made, books no longer printed. Children no longer went to school. To many of the population, this was a disgrace and extremely disgraceful for those who truly loved those everyday activities.
Soon, the Rebels – as they were dubbed – began their own camps. They found books that were unburned or thrown out, laptops and their chargers tossed carelessly out, and many more. Humocons were not allowed past their makeshift camps. The Rebel leader, a woman by the name of Charlie Quinn (Cameron Diaz) was fed up with the way people used their Humocons for their own needs – sexual or not. Disturbed by the way, everyday people marched down streets with their walking computers, she then decided to make her own laws – and followed only her rules.
Destroying every living Humocon in her path, she was quickly locked up, yet her words and her preaches would not cease, even within the jail cell. Her followers were also outraged and flew into a frenzy before finding themselves in the same situation. Humocons were still being made, even though Dr. Moore understood how angry many were.
In the year of 2063, Joseph Moore (John Krasinski), now at the age of twenty-eight, found himself intrigued by his father’s creations. He soon found himself a lovely, bronzed-skin, golden haired Humocon he named Venus (Frida Gustavasson). She followed him everywhere, always smiling. Always cheerful. However, Joseph had not known she was a defected model, programmed with a child-like mind by an accidental switch of the chips. Yet, the friendship they shared could never waver.
Or so, the duo hopes.
