Summary
IF YOU CAME ACROSS AN ABSOLUTELY REMARKABLE
THING
The Carls
just appeared... While roaming the streets of New York
City at 3 a.m., twenty-three-year-old April May stumbles
across a giant sculpture she calls Carl. Delighted by its
appearance - like a ten-foot-tall Transformer wearing a suit
of samurai armour - April and her friend Andy make a video
with it, which Andy uploads to YouTube. The next day April wakes up to a viral video and a new
life. There are Carls in dozens of cities around the world -
everywhere from Beijing to Buenos Aires - and April, as their
first documentarian, finds herself at the centre of an
international media spotlight. Now April has to deal with the pressure on her
relationships, her identity and her safety that this new
position brings, all while being on the front lines of the
quest to find out not just what the Carls are, but what they
want from us...
