The Last Faust transposes Goethe's epic saga of damnation to the year 2059. Faust's successor, Dr Goodfellow (Steven Berkoff) is the CEO of Winestone, the world's largest and most secretive tech firm.

However in the process, he unleashes a much darker force, an AI-based neural network on to the world.
