the thing about happiness
In a world controlled by social media and artificial intelligence, where self-expression is not just encouraged, but mandatory, happiness shouldn’t be hard to find; the app ICU provides comfort 24/7. But comfort always comes at a cost.
Join Eddy, Ira and their fish & chip-mad friends as they uncover the horrifying truth behind a life of easy scrolling and confront ICU’s evil CEO in their search for the truth, their Grandpa Artie, and happiness.
