Plot of the movie

The Electric State takes place in the 1990s, an alternate reality where the world is damaged by a war between humans and robots. The story is about Michelle, a teenage orphan whose parents die in a terrible car accident. Michelle thinks her brother, Christopher, died in the accident, but she finds signs that he might still be alive. That's when she sets out to find her missing sibling.

Michelle travels through a barren landscape with the help of Cosmo, a smart robot, and Keats, a war veteran. They have to deal with the dangers of rogue robots and the remains of the war.

They find out the truth about Sentre, a big company run by the cruel CEO Ethan Skate, as they travel. It turns out that Skate took Christopher, a very smart child, and faked his death so that he could use Christopher's intelligence to power a technology called Neurocaster.

When Michelle breaks into Sentre's headquarters, she finds Christopher unconscious and stuck in the Neurocaster system. Michelle disconnects him because she respects his wish to be free. This causes him to die and Sentre's operations to fail, bringing peace back to the war-torn world.
