Anxious
to use artificial intelligent robots to improve the world, Rosetta Stone
(Tilda Swinton), a bio-geneticist, devises a recipe
through which she can download her own DNA into a "live” brew
she is growing in her computer. She succeeds in breeding three Self Replicating
Automatons – S.R.A.’s that look human, but were bred as intelligent
machines. She names them Ruby, Marine and Olive.
In order to
survive, the S.R.A.'s need injections of male Y chromo found only in spermatozoa.
Rosetta programs Ruby while she sleeps to absorb images
and dialogue of classic movie clips of famous seductions. Ruby acts these
out in the real world and shares ‘donations’ with her sisters.
Ruby’s
evolving contact with the real world eventually introduces her to art,
spirituality,
and ultimately, when she meets Sandy (Jeremy Davies),
the capacity to fall in love.
All of the characters struggle to find meaning in a world where love is
the only thing that makes things real. In the process they find harmony between
the real and the virtual worlds.
