Year of 2399, after 300 years of drifting in the space, the spaceship STS Eternal is reactivated to return to the now deserted homeland – Earth. Inside STS Eternal, Adam awakes, too. As a vinyl floats up, spins up and begins to play the music, Adam's memory as a human being gets clearer and clearer... Will he meet the girl again? Is there still a paradise to be rediscovered?
