[edit] Synopsis

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

The film is about the scientist Rosetta Stone (Swinton) who puts her DNA into three Self Replicating Automatons (S.R.A.s). These cyborg clones must habitually go into the real world in order to obtain a supply of Y chromosome in the form of semen to keep them alive. Unfortunately, their periodic treks into the world seem to leave the men they obtain the chromosome from with a strange virus that overtakes both their bodies and their computers.
