Merril has gone through what no sister should ever go through- the disappearance of her sister, Angie. In an effort to elp manage her grief, Merril assembles all the digital material that Angie has left behind and creates a 'virtual Angie'. Virtual Angie is helpful until it begins to unravel the real Angie's disappearance. anthropology raises compelling questions about the ethics of artificial intelligence, the nature of memory, and the lengths to which individuals will go to preserve or recreate lost loved ones.

anthropology prompts reflection on the role of technology in our lives, especially in moments of loss, and challenges the audience to consider the boundaries between digital simulations and authentic human experiences.
