The ancient dream of eternal life. This theme is already present in what is perhaps the world's oldest literary work, The Epic of Gilgamesh. In modern terms, it is expressed, among other things, through transhumanism, according to which humans, with the help of science and technology, will overcome death. Normina's greatest fear is growing old and sick. When she is offered the chance to gain eternal life by transferring her consciousness to an artificial body, becoming a cyborg, she takes the opportunity, even though her best friend Valery, is not offered the same chance. Normina is too attracted by the prospect of eternal life to refuse, even though she is breaking a sacred promise they made to each other: to always stand by each other's side - for life. In the secretive Colony, which hides from the rest of the world behind an electronic signal barrier, Eva and Adam live, longing for permission to become parents. Eva is a priest in a congregation that practises its belief in a Creator and the hope of eternal life after death. Adam is a technician and works on maintaining the signal barrier. Someone in Eva's congregation spreads a myth about a city somewhere outside the colony where people are said to live forever. The authorities suspect a threat to the security and community of the colony and demand that she reveals who it is. In return, they will grant permission to have the long-awaited child. But then Eva must betray her trust as a congregation leader.
