And Alecto (Angela Schijf), an all-controlling, self-learning artificial intelligence, is always helpful in all decisions. From lunch to love, it's best to leave your affairs to Alecto.

But how do you find your own way when everything is based on data, coincidence no longer exists and the role of humans seems to be becoming less and less important?
