Martin è un web designer. Internet gli ha cambiato la vita, nel senso che gliel'ha tolta completamente, poiché il ragazzo resta davanti al computer 24 ore al giorno: crea i suoi siti, gioca ai videogames, ordina il cibo, fcompra oggetti per la casa. Esce di rado, ma scoppia dal desiderio di vivere davvero. Peccato che, ogni volta che ci prova, finisca per tornare indietro e rinchiudersi nel suo claustrofobico monolocale. Mariana è un architetto.
