Children of Men is a 2006 dystopian science fiction film loosely adapted from P.D. James' 1992 novel The Children of Men. The film was directed by Alfonso Cuarón and stars
Clive
Owen, Julianne
Moore, Claire-Hope Ashitey, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Michael
Caine. Set in an apocalyptic United Kingdom of 2027, the film explores a grim world in which two decades of global human infertility have left humanity with less than a century to survive. Societal collapse, terrorism, and environmental destruction accompany the impending extinction, with Britain, perhaps the last functioning government, persecuting a seemingly endless wave of illegal immigrant refugees seeking sanctuary. In the midst of this chaos, Theo Faron (Clive Owen) must find safe transit for Kee (Claire-Hope Ashitey), a pregnant African refugee. Children of Men was recognized for its achievements in screenwriting, cinematography, art direction, and innovative single-shot action sequences, receiving three Academy Award nominations and winning two BAFTA awards.
It is 2027; Britain has become an armed camp, and soldiers patrol the streets, rounding up illegal immigrants into cages. Televised reports announce that the youngest person on the planet — and the last human child to have been born — has been murdered at the age of eighteen in Argentina for not signing an autograph. Theo Faron (Clive Owen), a former political activist turned bureaucrat, appears apathetic; the rest of London mourns.
As Theo leaves a café, a bomb explodes. The government blames the attack on the "Fishes", a terrorist group that supports immigrant rights. Shaken, Theo visits his friend, Jasper Palmer (Michael Caine), a longhaired former political cartoonist living in the countryside, who spends his time growing cannabis and caring for his catatonic wife, a former war photographer tortured by the government.
Upon his return to London, Theo is kidnapped by the Fishes, who are led by his estranged wife, Julian Taylor (Julianne Moore). (Dylan, their young son, died during the flu pandemic of 2008.) Julian offers Theo £5,000 in exchange for a travel permit for a young African "fugee" (refugee) girl named Kee (Claire-Hope Ashitey). Initially ambivalent, Theo decides to obtain the permits. He visits his cousin Nigel (Danny Huston), a government minister and curator of a repository for rescued art, who arranges for the papers, with the stipulation that Theo must accompany Kee.
The trip begins, and Luke (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a member of The Fishes, drives Theo, Kee, Julian, and Miriam (Pam Ferris), a mid-wife, toward the first security checkpoint. They are ambushed before they arrive, and Julian is fatally shot in the neck. The police soon follow, and Theo (who is mourning for Julian), Luke, Kee, and Miriam escape to a safe house. With Julian dead, Luke is appointed the new leader of the Fishes.
Kee reveals to Theo that she is pregnant with the first child in nearly two decades. Julian had intended to take Kee to the Human Project, a mysterious group of scientists dedicated to curing infertility. Kee tells Theo that Julian told her that she should only trust Theo. With Julian dead, however, Luke proposes keeping Kee with the Fishes, and she chooses to stay until after the baby is born. Theo wishes to go public; the Fishes argue that Kee's baby will be taken by the government and used for its benefit.
Just before dawn, Theo awakens to overhear Luke state that he staged the ambush to assassinate Julian, so that the Fishes would be able to use Kee's baby as a political tool. Theo escapes with Kee and Miriam to Jasper's house -- with the Fishes in pursuit. At Jasper's, Miriam explains that the rendezvous with the Human Project's ship Tomorrow is scheduled at a buoy offshore from the Bexhill refugee camp. Jasper proposes a plan to smuggle them into the camp with the help of his friend and customer Syd, a guard at Bexhill.
After the Fishes discover Jasper's hideout, Theo, Miriam, and Kee escape with Jasper's help. Realizing his fate is now sealed, Jasper poisons his wife and dog. He refuses to tell Luke where Theo, Miriam, and Kee are, and is shot dead by the newly appointed leader. Theo and the group meet Syd (Peter Mullan) at an abandoned school, and he drives them to Bexhill as faux-prisoners. When Kee begins having contractions while they are loaded onto a refugee bus and taken into the camp, Miriam distracts a suspicious guard from noticing Kee's condition by faking religious mania, and is dragged off the bus into detention.
Theo and Kee enter Bexhill, a small gated town filled with crumbling apartment buildings and strewn with garbage. Here they meet Syd's contact, Marichka, who provides them with a room where Kee gives birth to a girl. The next morning, the Fishes break into Bexhill, attempting to capture Kee and her baby and start a refugee uprising. A camp uprising gains momentum, and the British Army moves in to quell the rebellion.
After Syd reappears and attempts to kidnap Theo and Kee to collect a bounty, they manage to fight off Syd and escape. The Fishes recapture Kee, but in the chaos they are separated. Theo tracks Kee and her baby to a besieged apartment building, and frees them, but Luke shoots Theo as they make their escape. When the soldiers and the armed insurgents hear the baby crying, the fighting stops and the combatants look on in awe. Theo, Kee, and the baby leave the building in safety, walking past the astonished soldiers.
As the fighting resumes, the three rejoin Marichka and make their way to a small boat, and Theo rows Kee and her baby out to the buoy that marks the rendezvous point. After military jets pass overhead and the sky glows from explosions, Kee sees blood in the boat, and Theo admits that he was shot during their escape. Kee says she will name her baby Dylan, and Theo gives a weak smile before slumping to the side of the boat. Then the Tomorrow emerges from the thick fog.
