Ce portrait tissé d'extraordinaires archives et de témoignages nous propose une immersion dans le glamour, la créativité et l'esprit de la styliste iconique Mary Quant, disparue le 13 avril 2023 à l'âge de 93 ans. On mesure une part de l'héritage que cette gamine galloise éprise de liberté, qui a habillé les swinging girls des sixties, a laissé à son art.

Conceived as an electronic road movie, this documentary investigates cutting edge technologies and their influence on our culture as we approach the 21st century. It takes off from the idea that mankind's effort to tap the power of Nature has been so successful that a new world is suddenly emerging,an artificial reality. Virtual Reality, digital and biotechnology, plastic surgery and mood-altering drugs promise seemingly unlimited powers to our bodies, and our selves. This film presents the implications of having access to such power as we all scramble to inhabit our latest science fictions.
