Synopsis
In a society where the existence of souls is scientifically proven, past lives can be examined.
One day, a man called to identify his deceased wife witnesses her moving despite being dead.
As the husband and his now moving corpse wife continue their life together, a foul odor begins to permeate their home.
A cat-shaped serving robot awakens to emotions and predicts the end of humanity.
