Story: |
Nada, a down-on-his-luck construction worker, discovers a pair of special
sunglasses. Wearing them, he is able to see the world as it really is: people
being bombarded by media and government with messages like Stay Asleep, No
Imagination, Submit to Authority. Even scarier is that he is able to see that
some usually normal-looking people are in fact ugly aliens in charge of the
massive campaign to keep humans subdued.
