In a distant future people are offered relationships with imitations that are human-like, but not human. It’s a paradisiacal solution to an age-old problem. Human relationships are far too degrading. Everyone submits to everyone. Everyone despairs. Everyone pushes their own limits beyond recognition. No one should have to feel that way.
A head lives in an apartment with the woman who obtained her. They are equals and Huvud has wonderful future plans for her self-realization. Then the woman’s father appears and presents all the incomprehensible biological or emotional or whatever bonds that exist between parents and offspring.
Mitt bästa liv is a triangle drama embedded in comic darkness. Messy, unsightly but with a certain tenderness towards existence
