In a dystopia of an undefined place and time, dominated by primitive technology, a group of people is being controlled by an omnipresent surveillance system. When someone in the group contracts a mysterious disease, he tries to contact the officials out of fear he will lose his job. Doubts arise about the structure he is working in. By questioning the system, he gets to know the depths of this structure which is even darker than he thought.
