Children of Men (2006) is set in a dystopian future where humanity faces extinction as women have become infertile, and no child has been born for nearly two decades. The world is plunged into chaos, and governments have collapsed. The story follows Theo Faron, a disillusioned bureaucrat, who is contacted by his activist ex-wife, Julian, to help transport a miraculously pregnant woman, Kee, to safety.

➱ STAFF REVIEW:
Children of Men (2006), directed by Alfonso Cuarón, is a masterful blend of science fiction and social commentary that delivers a gripping narrative and stunning visuals. Clive Owen gives a compelling performance as Theo, capturing the character’s transformation from apathy to hope. The film’s intense and immersive cinematography, particularly the long, continuous shots by Emmanuel Lubezki, enhances its realism and urgency. Cuarón's direction and storytelling create a thought-provoking and emotionally powerful experience. Children of Men is a haunting and poignant film that resonates with contemporary social and political themes.
