Synopsis
2097 Neo Hong Kong: bio-cyber humans and AI face mind-controlling digital viruses.
Neo Hong Kong, 2097: The world has changed. Advances in genetic engineering and cybernetics have created an environment full of artificially enhanced humans and intelligent super-computers that operate using biological software.
