In 1983, a young coder named Becks is struggling with grief and loneliness, channeling her pain into a video game project left by her late uncle. This digital creation, saved onto a floppy disk, unexpectedly becomes a nexus connecting disparate lives across time: a scientist, a robot, and a starship captain. Their journeys toward connection, and a mysterious space traveler's mission, are all subtly shaped by the echoes of Becks's work, weaving a hopeful narrative of shared humanity.
