In a primitive world 200 years in the future a young girl witnesses her friends ambushed and killed in a violent attack. She is saved by a reclusive sage who teaches her survival techniques, including how to overcome the illusions inherent to the material world. To illustrate this teaching he recites a tale about a young artist living in New York City, circa 2018. This artist passionately desires success and fame, and after signing a lucrative contract with mysterious clients, slowly begins to lose control over what he creates. In both plot lines, divine personalities - in disguise - intermingle with the human beings to test and provoke them to overcome their present limitations. This is the first live-action motion picture in English based on the Srimad-Bhagavatam (Bhagavata Purana), the jewel of the Vedic literature from ancient India, considered by many to be one of the oldest written texts in the world.
