Synopsis

It was cold one mid-winter morning, when the body of a woman lying nude atop a transparent table was slowly revealed as a cloud of liquid nitrogen dissipated. She was a traveler - the first. Her body was reduced to a digital bitstream from an identical table she lied atop just a split-second prior, but 30 feet away. She appears lifeless. Was this breakthrough “teleportation”? They say it couldn’t happen. It was impossible, they said. It would violate laws of superposition and quantum entanglement. Was it a success? The answer might be found in explanation of a brazen bank robbery which left multitudes dead by execution, and by the same trigger. The quest for teleportation was supposed to provide answers, not pose countless macabre questions. Enter Dr. Paul MacCauley and this team of four intrepid researchers. Like Dr. Frankenstein toiling to breathe life into lifeless flesh of what would become his monster, Dr. MacCauley’s team took life and displaced it in hopes of reanimating it where it didn’t exist before. Their quest started as a scientific pursuit but ended as a philosophical study of the cosmic reach, enduring power, and near massless fragility of the human soul.
