Description
A strange building with endless flights of stairs offers no escape. Five sixteen-year-old orphans are brought here, and it's not a prison, hospital, or any other place they know. Instead, they're led to a red machine that seems to be in charge. As they learn to love the machine, they must decide whether to let it rule their lives - but at what cost?
