In the not-so-far future the polar ice caps have melted and the resulting rise of the ocean waters has drowned all the coastal cities of the world.

Withdrawn to the interior of the continents, the human race keeps advancing, reaching the point of creating realistic robots called mechas to serve them.

One of the mecha-producing companies builds David, an artificial kid which is the first to have real feelings, especially a never-ending love for his "mother", Monica. Monica is the woman who adopted him as a substitute for her real son, who remains in cryo-stasis, stricken by an incurable disease.

David is living happily with Monica and her husband, but when their real son returns home after a cure is discovered, his life changes dramatically. David is 11 years old. He weighs 60 pounds. He is 4 feet, 6 inches tall. He has brown hair. His love is real. But he is not. Rated PG for some sexual content and violent images. Did you know Edit.
