西蒙·佩吉饰演一个从儿童文学转向犯罪小说写作的作家杰克，为了写作一个名为《几十年的死亡》（Decades of Death）的剧本，天生胆小的杰克开始调查一些维多利亚时期连环杀手的资料，导致自己患上严重的妄想症，总是臆想自己会遭到谋杀。就在杰克生活搞得一团糟的时候，一个神秘的好莱坞片商却对他写出的剧本表示出极大的兴趣。。Bipedalism, or 'two-footed walking', is the story of a painter who grew up in an orphanage and only years later learns the circumstances of his father's disappearance and death. Childhood memories bring the main character back to the past: he buys a house in the suburbs that used to belong to his family. In the basement, he finds his father's archives and scientific research documents on the hybridization of human race with related biological species. Studying the archive material, he unexpectedly finds evidence of efforts to renew the experiments on the remaining hybrid population. The painter then becomes a researcher, and consequently a victim. The basic idea of his father's research was to change, control and influence the process of human evolution - initially connected with eugenics theories of the period before World War II, and now being placed in a context of modern 'biotechnological' expectations by his former colleagues. The main character tries to recreate and realize his father's heritage, who was forced to cooperate with state terror organizations, using the results of his secret research. In a tragic manner, this information turns into the main character's reality, at first forcing him to reappraise his father's values and later driving him to madness.
