It's not called Roci Productions presents
In Argentina, a scientist navigates life via algorithms, much like us all. One day, the algorithm steers her on a quest for love and the Cure for Cancer. A journey through science, romance, public fundings, guinea pigs, peripheral economies, radical vegans and the unpredictable twists of digital destiny.
