A former activist, Theo Faron, played by Clive Owen, agrees to escort a miraculously pregnant refugee to the scientists of a mysterious organization called the Human Project.The birth of the child may help the scientists find a cure to humanity’s inability to procreate, and possibly save humans from extinction.

Ryan Wong analyzes the cinematography, mise-en-scene and editing of the film.
