Plot: Adam is a seemingly ordinary guy in a very extraordinary universe. He lives humbly trying to make ends meet, but his romantic spirit holds on to the memory of a girl he loved once upon a time from another world, an inverted affluent world with its own gravity, directly above but beyond reach... a girl named Eden. Their childhood flirtation becomes an impossible love. But when he catches a glimpse of grownup Eden on television, nothing will get in the way of getting her back... Not even the law or science!

Plot: It is at a Deaf club that a low immersion Virtual Reality system engineer, JASON SMITH, encountered the odd mannered, eccentric, and wicked anarchist for the first time. She had this peculiar way of leading a bunch of male fans into following her around everywhere she went. At first, it didn't seem to peak his interest until he saw one of the fans dropping his video-gadget. Destination: At Dawn, at the Lees bus station. Early in the morning, the Lee's bus station is quiet and empty. There are no buses or any people around. It is by surprise that he sees one of the anarchist's fans showing up and stealing his video-gadget before running away. He follows him with difficulty until he appears in front of the anarchist's special store, uPlump (In American Sign Language (ASL) it means "you (u) sign fluently (plump)"). When entering the store, he notices all the specially designed gadgets that are made for both the Hearing and Deaf individuals in favour of the Deaf culture. Then suddenly, the wicked anarchist signals him, already expecting him. She convinces him to try her secret innovation the same day at 9:00pm. The location of her new innovation is behind the uPlump store where there is an entrance leading to a strange underground hallway. This is where JASON SMITH, the low immersion VR engineer, took awareness of this newly invented VR game. But, what he didn't know, was that VICTORIA MERLE, the wicked anarchist, knew that JASON SMITH would be tempted to copy her secretly patented VR system. In fact, that's exactly why she wants him to "test" it. Because, once you test it, there's no turning back, you're under intensive brainwashing.

Plot: A series of scenes that focus specially on a single idea, emotion or act us. In the absence of interfering qualities this film is able to take one factoring influence and amplify it to absurd and hilarious proportions. Each scene gives us an uninterrupted view at some of the more unglamorous characteristics that in the end determine who we are, both as individuals and as a thread in the patchwork of the collective human unconscious.

Quotes:

Mia: Serving non-alcoholic beer with food that smells so good. It's torture!::Uffe's mother.: I only want what's best for you.::Mia: Best! Is this what's best for me? Enduring this damned existance... with all the shit and deceit and wickedness and staying sober? How can you expect or even want a single poor bugger to put up with it without being drunk? It's inhuman. Only a sadist would demand that.

The psychiatrist: Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. [examines the large stack of patient's files] I am a psychiatrist. I have been for 27 years. I'm completely worn out. Year after year, listening to patients who aren't satisfied with their lives, who want to have fun, who want me to help them with that - it wears you out, I can tell you. My life isn't exactly a lot of fun either. People demand so much. That's the conclusion I've drawn after all these years. They demand to be happy, at the same time as they are egocentric, selfish, and ungenerous. Well, I would like to be honest. I would like to say that they are quite simply mean, most of them. Spending hour after hour in therapy, trying to make a mean person happy... There's no point. You can't do it. I've stopped doing it. These days, I just prescribe pills. The stronger, the better.

Anna: Forgive those who only think of themselves. Forgive those who are greedy and cheap. And those who deceive and cheat or grow rich by paying miserable wages. Dear lord, forgive them. Forgive them. And Lord, forgive those who humiliate and desecrate. Forgive those who torture and kill. Forgive those who bomb and destroy cities and villages. Forgive those who are dishonest, those who lie and are false. Forgive governments who withhold the truth from the people. Dear Lord, forgive them. Forgive those who are heartless, merciless, and quick to pass judgment. Please Lord, forgive them. Forgive courts that pass sentences which are too harsh or convict the innocent. Forgive them.::The minister: Anna... We have to close and lock up now.::Anna: Forgive newspapers and TV channels that mislead. That distract attention from that which is important. Dear Lord, forgive them.::The minister: There now, Anna. We have to close and lock up now.::Anna: Dear Lord, forgive them. Forgive them.

Mia: I'm a miserable wench, on an ugly bench!

Quotes:

Sarah Silverman: Joe Franklin loved The Aristocrats. He was like our rehearsal director when dad and my brother weren't there, and my mother and my nana weren't there. I was on his show... he said it wasn't a taped show, but we, like, did a show... yeah, it was his office. But he had a bed in it, like a couch... that he called "Uncle Joe's Bed for Little People", because a couch is like a bed for little people, y'know... Joe Franklin raped me.
