Hey what's up guys. Today I'll show you a
sci-fi thriller film: "Children of Men"! Spoilers ahead, watch out and take care!
The movie begins in the future events of 2027 with a news report about the British government.
The regime had approved a bill, which decided that the borders would remain closed after eight years,
and it would also continue the deportation of illegal immigrants. Then the news talks about
the tragic death of the world's youngest person. We see the people inside the coffee shop listen
attentively to the information, but a tall man named Theo, dismisses it and goes out after
getting his coffee. Just seconds later, after Theo steps outside, a small explosion happens
in the nearby establishment, which injures a few people and some commuters. Following that, Theo
goes to work, where every one of his colleagues mourns the death of the world's youngest person.
Seeing that, Theo goes to his boss's office, and lies that he wants to take home his work, because
the death affected him more than he expected. The boss empathetically gives permission,
so Theo gets on a train to get home. On the way, the illegal immigrants are on the train tracks,
throwing rocks at the passengers. Luckily, the train has barriers on the windows,
so the passengers remain unharmed. After that, Theo calmly steps outside the train, where he
sees holding cells full of illegal immigrants, guarded by the police. Theo passes them and
walks towards his friend, the old man. After sharing a hug, the two get into the old man's
car and drive to his house, which is cleverly hidden in the woods, unlike other houses.
Inside the house, Theo sees the old man's mentally ill wife looking at the cut-out newspapers about
the ongoing human infertility, and massive immigration of refugees for almost two decades.
There is also a photograph of Theo with a woman and a baby. Later that day, the old man proudly
talks about his drugs, and lets Theo have a taste. Then, the old man changes the subject and brings
up the Human Project. It is an unconfirmed organization, that pursues the solution to
the world's infertility problems. Theo replies that it is too late even though the organization
has the cure for infertility, because the world has succumbed to war and global depression to
the point that humanity faces extinction. The following day, Theo passes more holding cells
outside, while the police arrest refugees. Then, moments after, two men forcibly take Theo inside
a van, and take him into an interrogation room where they introduce themselves as the Fishes.
The Fishes is a militant immigrant-rights group led by Theo's ex-wife. The leader casually talks
to her ex-husband about immigrants, and even British people joining their movement for equality
for all immigrants in Britain. After that, the leader reveals that she needs Theo's help,
to get transit papers for a young refugee to get to the coast. The leader says that Theo can get
the documents from his cousin, who works for the government, in exchange for money. Theo denies
that he needs the money, so the men forcibly put a bag over his head. After that, they give him a
letter and drop him off. Following that, Theo goes to his cousin, a government minister who
runs a state-sponsored collection of salvage art. Theo lies to his cousin, because he knows he will
not get the transit papers if he tells him the truth. Theo succeeds in deceiving his cousin.
Later that night, Theo meets the Fishes' henchman at a bar, and informs him that his cousin gave him
joint transit papers, which means he would escort the young refugee. Theo is willing to do it in
exchange for more money. The henchman agrees and leaves a photograph of the young refugee.
The next day, Theo meets the Fishes' leader, who leads him to a car where he finds the henchman,
along with the young refugee and a midwife. The henchman drives towards Canterbury,
but an armed gang ambushes them on the way there. The henchman quickly backs up and drives away,
but the group fires at them, and hits the Fishes' leader in the neck. Driving away, the group
stumbles upon police and ambulance cars going to the scene. Then, two police officers stop them,
when they see the leader bleeding to death, but the henchman kills them. Following that,
the midwife performs a prayer to the corpse of the Fishes' leader in the woods. Theo walks away
from the scene before he breaks down into tears, and mourns the death of his ex-wife.
Not long after, the henchman calls them to leave to go to the Fishes' safehouse on a rural farm.
After cleaning himself, Theo overhears the Fishes electing the henchman as their new leader. later,
the midwife calls Theo to the barn, because the young refugee wants to talk to him. In there,
the young refugee reveals that she knows about Theo's child with the Fishes' deceased leader.
She says that the leader told her that if anything happens, she should go with Theo, because he will
get her to "The Tomorrow," a mysterious crew ship that will help her. However, Theo does not know
anything about the boat, and attempts to leave. But then, the young refugee suddenly strips off
her clothes, revealing her pregnancy. Theo stares at the young refugee in shock as the realization
hits him. After almost two decades of human infertility, a young refugee woman is pregnant
standing before him. Then, the Fishes' new leader and the midwife come in and take Theo out.
Following that, the Fishes watch the news broadcast about the armed encounter of
their former leader. It also says that the new leader, Theo, the young refugee, and the midwife
are now terrorists after murdering two police officers. The police have sufficient forensic
and surveillance evidence to identify the four terrorists. The new leader informs everyone that
the police could identify and arrest them anytime. He says that the plan of giving the young refugee
to the Human Project, might change because of the incident, especially because she is pregnant.
Suddenly, Theo shouts that she should publicly announce her pregnancy, which gathers various
reactions from the Fishes. Most of them know that the government will not accept a baby from
a young black refugee, even though it is the first pregnancy after two decades of human infertility.
The young refugee wants to go to the coast and escape the government, but the new leader insists
she has her baby in the safehouse, as it is too dangerous for her. The young refugee agrees to
get to the coast after she gives birth, which gathers cheers from the Fishes.
Later that night, Theo hears arguing outside, and overhears that the new leader planned the
death of his ex-wife. They plan to kill him next, and use the baby as a political tool to
support the uprising revolution. Theo quickly wakes up the young refugee and the midwife,
and informs them about the Fishes' plan. They promptly go outside and steal a car,
so the Fishes quickly follow them. Then, the new leader comes running, and instructs his men not
to shoot, because the pregnant refugee is inside. The Fishes attempt to follow them, but they manage
to outdistance the group, and escape to the old man's house. Theo introduces the young refugee
and the midwife to the old man. After that, they talk about "The Tomorrow," and it is revealed
to be a hospital ship disguised as a fishing boat, that will lead them to the Human Project.
The ship will stop at the last two weather signals en route at sunset. One will happen later that
night at Windsmore, and the other will occur on two days at Bexhill, which is another refugee
camp. After hearing that, the old man stands up, and leaves them wondering about his plan.
Following that, while the three patiently wait for the old man's arrival, the young refugee
shares how she discovered her pregnancy. She says she had never seen a pregnant lady, but she knew
that she was pregnant when she started puking, and her belly started getting big. Then, the old
man finally returns with a piece of good news. He had found someone to help them get into Bexhill,
an immigration cop that frequently buys drugs from him. Later that night, after walking the
dog outside, Theo overhears the old man's story about Theo and his ex-wife's love life. The two
met in a rally and fell in love. Later on, they had a baby, but the baby was taken away from them
during the 2008 flu pandemic. Theo leaves while the old man continues his story. The next day,
the loud noises from outside woke up Theo. The old man quickly checks the CCTV cameras,
and sees the Fishes breaking in. Theo promptly leaves with the young
refugee and the midwife, while the old man insists on staying to stall the Fishes.
As soon as they go, the old man calmly says his feelings to his wife, and performs a mercy
killing on her. Not long after, the Fishes barges into the old man's property, looking for Theo.
The old man lies to the new leader, but his men find documents about the three going to Bexhill.
Cornered, the old man makes a joke, but the new leader does not find it funny, and mercilessly
fires his gun three times. Meanwhile, Theo is in the woods and watches how the new leader
kills his friend. After that, Theo immediately gets in the car to meet the immigration cop,
and drives away before the Fishes find them. The following day, Theo wakes up and sees that they
had stopped at an abandoned school. He finds the young refugee using the swing outside,
while the midwife is in one of the rooms. Out of nowhere, the midwife suddenly shares how human
infertility slowly happened from one miscarriage to another, without scientific explanation.
Suddenly, they hear an alarm outside, so they immediately step out; and they see a military car.
The person instructs them to remain unmoved using a speaker. So Theo quickly says that the person
inside is a fascist pig, which the old man told him to say when he meets the immigration cop. The
immigration cop then steps outside the vehicle, and lifts his baton in the air to scare Theo.
The immigration cop then laughs, invites them to his car, and drives to Bexhill.
On the way there, the young refugee suddenly feels excruciating pain from her belly,
but the midwife and Theo make an alibi not to get caught and killed. The immigration
cop opens the door, and informs them that a gypsy woman is waiting for them inside,
who will help them to get accommodation. After that, the three pretend to be illegal immigrants,
while the immigration cop pretends to scare them. Inside the bus, the midwife informs Theo that only
the former leader can contact the Human Project organization. The organization usually reaches
an immigrant to spread information to others, until the word gets to their former leader,
which means that no others in the Fishes have talked to the organization before her death.
After that, the bus finally arrives at Bexhill Refugee camp, where the young refugee's water
breaks. Her cries of pain gather the attention of a police officer, who attempts to take her.
So the midwife distracts the officer by putting on a religious mania, but this only causes herself to
be taken away. Then Theo tells the officer that the young woman pisses herself, so the officer
leaves the bus in disgust. The young refugee witnesses how the police use their power to abuse
illegal immigrants. Inside the camp, the two meet the gypsy woman, and she leads them to their room.
Inside, the young refugee struggles to give birth, but a baby girl is born after a few minutes.
The following day, a loud knock wakes them up, so Theo opens the door; and the immigration cop comes
in with the gypsy woman. He informs them that the Fishes bombed a hole to get in and frees refugees.
Meanwhile, the young refugee attempts to hide her child, but this catches the cop's attention,
and leads to him discovering the baby. However, the cop informs them that they need to go. But
the gypsy woman tells them that it is a bad idea, so the cop shuts them up with his gun.
Following that, the cop informs them that he watched on the news, that Theo and the young
refugee have bounties on their heads. So the cop attempts to capture them and have the baby,
but the gypsy woman quickly pushes him off the stairs. With Theo's help, they kill the
cop and escape. The gypsy woman leads them to a hidden rowboat surrounded by rallies and fights;
but the Fishes come out of nowhere, and capture the young refugee and the baby. The new leader
takes them into an apartment building, while Theo and the gypsy woman are left behind with
the angry Fishes. The Fishes nearly kill both of them, but the British army suddenly comes out,
and engages in a shooting fight with them. The two immediately escape, but only Theo follows the
young refugee inside the building under a heavy shooting. Theo passes by many corpses inside, and
several refugees hiding. Then, he finds the young refugee and the baby; and attempts to leave with
them. but the new leader stops them. However, an explosion kills the new leader, and Theo escorts
the young refugee out of the building. Everyone they pass is in awe of the baby, including the
soldiers and the Fishes, who temporarily stop fighting, and allow them to leave.
Seconds later, the war strikes again, so they immediately run away from the scene.
The gypsy woman then leads them to the boat, but she stays behind. Theo quickly rows to the
rendezvous point, where they witness British fighter jets conduct airstrikes on Bexhill.
Suddenly, the young refugee sees bloodstain on the boat, and panics that she is bleeding.
However, Theo reveals that the new leader had wounded him earlier.
Theo then teaches the young refugee how to make her daughter burp; and after that, the young woman
informs him that she will name her child after his dead son. Theo smiles before he loses his
consciousness. The film ends with Theo dying, as the Tomorrow ship approaches their boat.
