Next Life

BRIEF SYNOPSIS **Death was their destiny.

They weren't exceptional but they still got their second chance.**

A new dark adventure from the creators of the legendary horror BLACK MIRROR and of the adventure NIBIRU.

Adam Raichl, a 23 years old technician, gets in the car in quite high mood. He has probably some dull work ahead of him, and therefore he looks forward even more to how the evening will continue in a far more pleasant companion. "Everything has its price", he thinks for himself.

Adam starts the engine. When the engine starts up, he feels a sharp sting in his head, something like a quick flash of light. It is intense and unpleasant. He stumbles in a surprise, shakes his head without understanding and then pushes the gas pedal aggressively with the hope that the feeling will not repeat. Adam's GMC quickly shoves off the pavement. Adam puts the safety belt on and turns the radio playing rock music up. His good mood slowly returns.

The silver GMC quickly heads towards the road leading to Karlovy Vary. The song ends and the radio continues with a debate. "Professor, we will now continue in our debate. What is your opinion concerning the reasons of stress and its negative implications in our civilization?

"Mhhhhm, you know, the pace of our, I mean of our current technical evolution, kind of… was mhhhm… let's say quicker than what a human body can bear, do you understand what I mean?
