Mark, a forty-year-old programmer, discovers his digital twin in the metaverse has started living a more interesting life than the original. While virtual Mark travels through digital landscapes and romances AI characters, the real one spends days in a rented apartment ordering food delivery. This 2026 comedy-drama explores the paradox of hyper-connected loneliness, where technology promises connection but creates new forms of isolation. Director Anna Kovalёv uses contrast between the bright neon worlds of the metaverse and muted tones of everyday life to show how digital avatars become shelters from real life's imperfections. The film balances absurd humor of situations the hero finds himself in with quiet melancholy of his existence.
