Step into a future where society has engineered happiness by eliminating pain, passion, and individuality. In this world, citizens are conditioned from birth and kept content with a mood-altering drug. But when a man from the 'savage' outside world is brought into this sterile utopia, he begins to question the very foundations of their perfect society.
