On a quest for meaning in the human world.

The question of meaning seems to occupy humanity since the beginning of time and the attempts to find an answer are as diverse as the human beings themselves. But what happens when one tries to examine that question from a non-human perspective? Filmmakers Bedekovic/Grunsky attempt this experiment by sending the alter ego X on a journey through Europe, before the outbreak of COVID-19. Although X observes the human world in a pure analytic way, she is offered quite emotional thoughts from the terrestrials.
