Manuel’s body is completely paralyzed. He’s dependent on his intelligent wheel chair named Marvin, that feeds him, washes him and even helps him into bed. Manuel suffers from the incurable nerve disease ALS – the same disease Stephen Hawking had. He’s only got a few months to live. But then, Manuel finds out about a controversial project, where an entire computer simulation of the brain is being developed. The project’s aim is to make a digital survival possible. But the scan will destroy Manuel’s brain. Is he really willing to undergo that risk?
