A man named Mike finds himself held captive by mysterious figures called "Photo-Snatchers" who are obsessed with technology and taking photos. They subject Mike to tests and try to force him to join their world order. Mike escapes but finds the outside world empty as most people have been consumed by new apps and technology. Mike is pursued by the Photo-Snatchers and a masked man who seems familiar to him. In the end, the masked man captures Mike again and says he will now be "cleansed" and join the Photo-Snatchers.
