Synopsis

Ross, the last surviving human on Earth, is awakened from suspended animation by robots who need human instructions to function, in a world where nuclear war has sterilized the planet's surface and eliminated all life. Across vast stretches of hibernation and waking periods, he works with an ever-growing army of robot servants to find a way to restore life to the devastated Earth while battling profound loneliness and despair.
