Logline:
The world, tired of human sins, is leaving. Things, feelings, phenomena and even people are disappearing. Whether it can be stopped, the heroes of the series, mired in spiritual emptiness, will have to find out.
Synopsis:
It seems to us that our world is stable, but it is not. It is changing physically and mentally! Humanity is filling the planet, destroying flora and fauna, drowning its feelings in the digital tinsel of modernity. Confident in our impunity, we are killing the world. What if it starts to take revenge? Raises its hand against human emptiness and lack of spirituality and turns away from us as punishment? Suddenly, things dear to us, objects, means of communication, phenomena, feelings and even people will begin to physically disappear. Will we notice this? Will we be able to reject the superficial and hold on to the real, the natural, the true - that which makes us human?
An egocentric engineer loses everything, including the stars in the sky. A consummate voyeur faces the physical disappearance of the Internet. A killer greedy for easy money loses his clients. A fanatic embittered by the whole world becomes immortal. These are not accidents, these are natural phenomena of the DISAPPEARING WORLD. The list can go on and on...
