My Unborn Son

Nora is facing the life-altering choice of whether or not to become a mother. In her uncertainty, she has turned to science: by means of a lifelike simulation, she can meet an AI version of the child she could have. In the real world, there is only a stream of code on a screen and a cluster of cells in a Petri dish – but in virtual reality, there is a grown man, full of life. What will Nora see when she looks into the eyes of her future child?
