In a stark, white landscape where the polar night stretches eternally, the youngest astronaut ever launched, Alice Hayashi, watches her shuttle shatter against the unforgiving ice. The crash leaves her isolated, the bitter cold pressing in as she awakens to a world that seems to belong to a different century. With only a lone stewardess‑robot companion for company, she begins to navigate a barren horizon that hints at a history rewritten by forces far beyond her original mission.

The sky above the frozen wasteland is now dominated by the cold order of a future ruled by the enigmatic tyrant Nero and his pervasive supercomputer, SS10X. Society has retreated into muted shadows, its once‑vibrant pulse reduced to whispers of resistance and the occasional flicker of hope. The atmosphere feels taut, a blend of chilling isolation and a simmering undercurrent of defiance, as strangers wander the desolate towns searching for meaning amid the silence.

Alice quickly discovers that her arrival is no accident; an uncanny link ties her mind to the very machinery that sustains the regime. This connection, mysterious and unsettling, positions her as a potential catalyst for the whispered rebellion stirring beneath the surface. Alongside SS1X, the faithful robot that tended her during the ill‑fated flight, she encounters a handful of unlikely allies whose quiet resilience hints at a larger, covert movement seeking to reclaim agency from the oppressive order.

The film unfolds as a haunting exploration of time, memory, and the fragile threads that bind humanity together. Through stark visual palettes and an unsettlingly quiet score, it invites the audience to ponder whether a single voice—once silenced—might still echo loudly enough to fracture the machinery of domination and rekindle a future once thought lost.
