Confusion. Powers R.

Astrobiologist Theo Burn is looking for life in distant space and after the death of his wife alone brings up his nine -year -old son Robin, an unusual smart boy who composes poetry and can draw animals and plants for hours in the smallest details. They also want to exclude him from school for being beaten by his own friend. Every month, Robin's condition worsens, and then the father resorts to the latest treatment method - neural feedback.

Robin begins to control himself, interacting with a model that is based on a pre -recorded image of the emotions of his late mother, who previously participated in the experiment. Meanwhile, the world around the Birn and throughout the Earth begins to collapse.
