Under the artificial sky blue of HTUA-China, a man is on his way to market his company's latest business idea: "True Barefood Running." Nio Schulz lives with Big Data, in a world of gender cameras and technical self-optimization.

After the international success of "In Times of Diminishing Light," Eugen Ruge tells the story of the next generation and, at the same time, in a wildly sweeping motion, the backstory - of everything.
