The story takes place in the near future, when the recording of consciousness is only a new step towards the improvement of life and the attainment of immortality. People live their lives and dream of dreams. Kristi and Tom’s dream has been to have a baby for some time. Now this dream is coming true – Kristi is pregnant. But then Kristi gets into a fatal car accident. However, the baby survives. Along with Kristi’s death report, Tom receives information that the woman had saved her consciousness. This consciousness is provided to Tom in the form of a tiny chip.
The chip can be used to communicate with Kristi through the audio system. Tom activates Kristi. Everything in their communication sounds as if Kristi really exists. Kristi can make jokes, sing lullabies to her baby girl, and be there for Tom. Soon Tom realises that hearing Kristi is not enough, he needs her beside him. Digitised consciousness can be introduced into a surrogate body. Tom sees no other option than using this possibility. Without talking to Kristi, he chooses a new body for her. It’s not identical to Kristi’s, but it’s the body of a woman Tom could imagine beside him.
A new reality – a woman who has a strange body with Kristi’s consciousness – is about to enter Tom’s life. It’s supportive and good for Tom, but also strange and unfamiliar. Both are doing their best to live a family life in this way. But what does identity consist of? What makes a relationship? To what extent are body and consciousness related?
The story doesn’t end well. But not badly either.
