The drama is set in the near future and follows two convicts who accept an offer to become medical subjects in exchange for reduced sentences. But are they prepared for what this experiment will bring to the surface? Each will be faced with dealing with their past as they become test patients for emotion-altering drugs while under the supervision of a brilliant visionary.
