00:00The most ridiculous thing here is the description of the future, where the whole world has become digitalized.
00:04Although there are many myths that seem to be from video games, the most bizarre is the virtual burial life.
00:10This is a place where the rich and the poor can live after death and enjoy luxuries that they could not while they were alive.
00:16The process of entering such a world is simple, after a person dies, his memory and consciousness are transferred to the burial life according to their choice.
00:24As the person is richer, he can choose a better option for the burial life.
00:28In this way, the person can live forever as long as his or her family continues to pay the bills.
00:33In addition, they can communicate with their family and friends and even meet them when they die and are transferred to the burial life.
00:41This rigorous process of joining the digital paradise is called Upload.
00:45The process is not managed by the government, but by a large private conglomerate with thousands of employees who act as a service for the users of the burial life.
00:54However, the employee is a 25-year-old girl named Nora.
00:58Her job includes leading new clients to the burial life and helping to adapt to the new environment.
01:04She uses a futuristic communication application with them and can meet them using her virtual version.
01:10As part of her work for the largest organization in the world, Nora hates her job, but continues to hope that she will get a job for the burial life when she dies.
01:18After that, we meet Nathan, an ambitious engineer with a talent for developing new applications.
01:23He drives his futuristic car, which can be driven automatically and has all safety measures.
01:29After a while, Nathan is bored and confused and decides to drive himself.
01:33He turns on the illegal device in the car and drives it using the controller.
01:37Unfortunately, the police drone notices the fast-driving vehicle and starts chasing him quickly, but Nathan finds himself with a clever excuse and pulls out of anger.
01:45When he comes home, he joins his family and the rich girl Ingrid.
01:50Here we find out that Nathan is not in love with her because of her obsession with money and fame.
01:54She is too protective and possessive, which is the opposite of Nathan's nature.
01:58Later, while Nathan is dancing with his girlfriend, Ingrid becomes love-struck and breaks them up.
02:03She convinces him to make love to her in the backseat of his car.
02:07In the next scene, Nathan goes to a digitalized market and buys several items.
02:12On his way back, his car breaks down and collides with a truck at full speed.
02:17This causes Nathan serious injuries, but he is still alive.
02:20He is immediately transferred to a hospital, where doctors tell him that the injuries are so serious that he can either be transferred or die naturally.
02:27Ingrid then approaches him with a contract for his transfer, and in a state of panic, Nathan signs him and registers him in the funeral world.
02:35They quickly take him to an isolated room and put him on a chair.
02:38Nathan thinks he will be treated, but to his horror, he is beheaded.
02:42Immediately after that, he wakes up in the funeral life and the first thing he hears is Noreen's voice.
02:47We ask him a number of questions to make sure his hearing works correctly, and we create a virtual avatar with an unusual hairstyle.
02:54In the next scene, Nathan wakes up from his delirium and is in a luxurious room.
02:58Nora explains to him that the room is called Lakeview Afterlife, one of the most expensive packages offered by their company.
03:04She also explains that everything in the package is designed to satisfy his interests.
03:09For example, there is a ball pit near the building, but for other clients it can be a basketball court.
03:15Nathan can also meet new friends in the funeral life.
03:19All this information floods Nathan and he begins to cry.
03:23Seeing this, Nora calms him down and mentions that he will soon get used to the changes.
03:27She convinces him to sleep and continues to work with another client.
03:30The next morning, when Nathan goes to the kitchen to eat, he discovers that the purchase is being paid for in the application.
03:36However, he cannot pay with his account because his plan was sponsored by Ingrid's family.
03:42This gives Nathan the knowledge that Ingrid is now controlling his life and can erase him if he wants.
03:47Later, depressed Nathan goes to his balcony and looks at the beautiful nearby lake.
03:52He searches the area and discovers that he can change the season with the help of a remote control.
03:56After that, he meets Ingrid and Nubak, who also use the same package.
04:01Surprisingly, she is black and white because her avatar is made based on the old picture.
04:06He calls Ingrid with a digital smartphone and finds out that she is having fun, which surprises him, because he thinks that she is still sorry for his death.
04:14After a short conversation, Ingrid hangs up the call, but not before reminding Nathan that he can't run away from her.
04:19Meanwhile, Nora has dinner with her father, who is seriously ill.
04:24With death coming closer, Nora plans to save money for his transfer program, but he rejects the idea, claiming that he wants to meet his wife in the real heaven.
04:33On the trail of the afterlife, Nathan meets a boy named Luke, who is also looking for breakfast.
04:38It is about a strange flow called a torrent, an entrance between the afterlife and the real world, but the passage through it is dangerous.
04:45Many people who cannot adapt to the virtual world end their lives by jumping into it.
04:51Days pass, and Nathan becomes paranoid because of the sudden changes.
04:54Wherever he goes, the person celebrates him as Mr. Brown, and his hair is too silky for his taste.
05:01What's more, there are monsters in the afterlife that slowly drive him crazy.
05:05Surrounded by everyone around him, Nathan decides to end his life.
05:08He goes to the torrent to start his plan, but luckily Nora stops him.
05:12He begs her to give it to him for a few days, and after a lot of persuasion, Nathan finally agrees.
05:17Before he even gives it to her, he says his real name as a sign of trust.
05:21A little later, Nora leaves the office.
05:24While her computer is not nearby, she mysteriously erases files from Nathan's memory by herself.
05:29The next day, Nathan is sent to animal therapy because of his behavior since yesterday.
05:33He gets a golden retriever, but the surprising dog can talk.
05:37It turned out that the therapist from the real world controls the dog, because that's the only way to convey his message and make Nathan feel better.
05:45Before the session ends, the therapist gives Nathan the task of writing the names of the five people he meets today.
05:51In second place, Nora approaches her boss with documents that confirm that her father has the right to a permission to upload.
05:58However, the boss rejects the permission, saying that he applied it only to jobs that have a score of at least 4.6 on his profile.
06:05Nora has a score of 4.59, and although the difference is negligible, the boss is not worried.
06:11In the virtual world, Nathan finds out that he is being buried today.
06:14He calls Ingrid to find out how the preparations are going, but to his surprise, she is in the spa center, where she receives injections of mother cells.
06:21Nervous about what he saw, Nathan quickly hangs up the call and starts looking for a new friend to complete his task.
06:27He meets a boy named Dylan, who died at the age of 12, and since then he has been in the cemetery.
06:33Nathan tries to start a conversation, but the boy is overwhelmed by the struggle with virtual characters.
06:39Later, he meets a man named David Chouk, who pretends to be a billionaire.
06:43David lives a luxurious cemetery life, in which he enjoys the time he has lost in the real world.
06:48As the conversation continues, David asks what Nathan has done for a living.
06:52Nathan discovers that he and his friend Jamie have developed an application that would allow people to create their own cemeteries in which they could spend time with their families.
07:02That way, they don't have to pay millions to enjoy the virtual world.
07:06Hearing this in a joke, David says that Nathan was killed by the owners of the company because he would bring them to bankruptcy.
07:12The theory intrigues Nathan, but he decides to ignore it and leaves.
07:15On the ground, Nathan's family hires a detective named Fran to investigate his death.
07:20Without wasting time, she immediately searches for his car and finds it in the rubble.
07:25The surprising car still works, but refuses to admit that it is damaged.
07:29This implies that someone touched the car.
07:31In the meantime, Nora and Nathan are walking around, where Nathan mentions that he has recently had memory problems.
07:37For example, he can't remember the application he developed.
07:40Hearing this, Nora remembers the incident where she found a large number of files that were missing from his memory.
07:45She promises to investigate it, but she got busy with other clients.
07:49She gives everything she has to convince them to rate her with 5 stars, but they all do the opposite.
07:54Seeing this, Nathan approaches her and gives her a few ratings of 5 stars.
07:58Because of this unselfish act, Nora opens up to Nathan and we discover their whole situation.
08:03In the end, the two of them begin to like each other.
08:06On their way home, Nora searches for data that is missing from Nathan's memory.
08:10She can't find them, but she manages to get to the memories that come immediately after the erased parts.
08:15There, Nathan and his friend Jamie have just left a business meeting.
08:19A man comes to them and asks if they shared the idea with some big companies.
08:24Nathan replies that no one but his family and girlfriend knows about it.
08:28Nora considers the whole conversation strange and decides to investigate it later.
08:32In the next scene, several news channels announce the start of a revolutionary experiment.
08:37If it succeeds, the scientist can return a person from the afterlife to the real world.
08:41This process is called a takeover or download, and the first experiment will be broadcast globally.
08:46In the meantime, Nathan is preparing for his funeral.
08:49Ingrid is in charge of the whole event and even chooses Nathan's clothes.
08:54After he has woken up, Nathan finds out about the experiment with the takeover and becomes excited, hoping that one day he will be able to return to the real world.
09:02The experiment soon begins and after a while things go according to plan.
09:05However, the whole plan collapses when the scientist's head explodes.
09:09This shocks everyone, including Nathan, but he still hopes that one day he will be able to return home.
09:14In the next scene, the funeral begins in the real world as well as in the virtual world.
09:18However, Nathan is shocked when he discovers that the funeral is actually a joke and that no one came to express their condolences.
09:24Instead, they came to watch the game and hang out.
09:27Even his mother comes and informs him that the money they received from Ionica, his company, was nothing special.
09:34Nathan is upset about all this, but he is even sadder because his best friend Jamie is not present.
09:39Later, angry Nathan faces Ingrid because of her stupid planning, but she urges him to shave if he doesn't behave nicely.
09:46Not having a choice, Nathan involuntarily apologizes and leaves.
09:50Nora watches it all and feels bad for him.
09:52In the meantime, Detective Caffran also comes to the funeral and visits Nathan.
09:57She asks him if he had enemies, to which he replies that he didn't.
10:00After that, she discovers that his vital signs were getting better after coming to the hospital and that he could be easily cured.
10:06In the second place, Nora returns home and calls the guy she saw in Nathan's memory.
10:11The guy presents himself as Josh, but refuses to disclose any other information about the meeting, claiming that it is confidential.
10:18In the funeral, Nathan calls his best friend Jamie, but as always, he doesn't show up.
10:23This is the final scene, because Nathan finally feels that something strange is happening around him.
