Biologist Toshiaki Nagashima has dedicated his career to researching mitochondria. Through experiments, he understands the symbiotic relationship the organisms have with the human body. Tragedy strikes, though, when the doctor's wife of only a year is left brain dead from a car accident. Consumed with grief, the biologist sneaks off with her liver. Delusional, Nagashima plans to keep his wife "alive" by making a culture out of her mitochondria. The doctor's efforts end up being too successful, as the culture begins to rapidly multiple. After briefly possessing the doctor's assistant, the culture reveals its true form: Mitochondria Eve...
