Summary:
A million years in the future, after 'The Great War', mankind has created very human-like robot slaves to do all the dirty work, while humans indulge in all the pleasures of the flesh. As one male robot gains consciousness, he tires of pampering his lazy mistress and accidentally kills her, then he seeks out other robots who also rebel.
