Plot

Rock widow Y. tries to come to terms with the death of her husband, the Artist Known as John. Sharing her grief is her assistant Charles, whose partner died of AIDS. When she meets Andrea, a young journalist with wild ideas about art and technology, she is awakened to parallels between her artwork, technology and economy. Daniel Mohn, the visionary founder and CEO of Monosoft, reminds her that the Cold War wasn’t won by missiles, but by artists like herself and her late husband.
