Overview

In a very distant future, a mysterious alien power has genetically altered the native inhabitants of a planet to serve as their slave labour force. From "birth", these unfortunate beings are taught that the sole purpose in their lives is to complete the construction of a massive city for supreme beings, their "Gods", who will one day arrive. Despite this control over their destiny, some among these enslaved creatures being to resist. One of them attempts to break free - quite literally reclaiming his identity from a world that has taken it.
