Through moments in the lives of three groups of girls, images gleaned from the web and live streams of young women around the world, BLOOM delves into the world of today's teenage girls. We delicately observe a hyper-connected but lonely generation inhabited by great lucidity, an inner struggle with self-image obsession, and a need for self-affirmation in the face of a complex sense of alienation.

2048. Google owns most of the planet and is now run by Mark Zuckerberg. He finds a cure for death, through a digital immortality software that allows him to download himself into a hologram. While it is reserved for an elite group of rich and powerful men, a group of hackers seizes the source code of this program containing the antidote of immortality and makes it accessible to the whole world.
