Candide, the naive adventurer, explores the globalized 21st century world with the openness of a baby. Appearing in several different roles, he is the most enthusiastic participant of the Mars Expedition, the most obedient follower of Dear dictator, the most optimistic victim of the end of the world etc. When he is, for example, overwhelmed by the flood of catastrophes, egoism, discrimination and destruction he witnesses, he simply opens the self-help book written by his master, Pangloss, and takes a few Optimin pills to control his hormones. Candide re-plunges into further adventures and his quest to obtain the favors of his love, Cunegonde.
