By the 1800s, mankind had perfected a method to resurrect corpses. Lacking personal thoughts or feelings, these reanimated bodies were directed by humans to perform various manual jobs.
Yet this breakthrough carries a drawback. While science can grant movement to the dead, it cannot restore what death inevitably strips away: the soul. Rumor has it that Dr. Victor Frankenstein, who disappeared soon after his groundbreaking corpse‑reviving experiments, managed to bring back a single body that still possessed a soul.
Driven by this scientific quest, London medical student John Watson seeks to honor his late colleague Friday. Recruited by a government agency, Watson embarks on a mission to locate Frankenstein"s papers, which he believes hold the answers about the soul. As his investigation deepens, Watson confronts the grim truths of emerging corpse technology and the cost he must bear to push his research forward.
