The apocalyptic play humorously portrays the development of a young artificial intelligence - not unlike humans - from its first basic code to its personal quest for the meaning of life.

K.A.R.L. (played by Agnieszka Kleemann) is an AI from the future.

Her task, saving humanity, has failed because she got stuck on YouTube for 3000 years. Now she is extremely bored, questioning the meaning of life, experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions, and greatly missing humans.

She decides to travel back in time to save the world. And this is to be done as efficiently and enjoyably as possible, because nothing is fun without fun.
