A love story set in the future where almost everything is determined by genetics. It is directed by Michael Winterbottom, who has managed to portray the future in a somewhat believable way...there's no robots or anything like that, just the odd touch that aren't impossible to imagine, such as humans only being able to venture out at night due to the sunlight becoming hazardous, and there being a universal language that everyone can understand.
It is beautifully shot, and I think the thing that made this film for me is the soundtrack. It is kind of mysterious and haunting, fitting perfectly with the storyline, and even the style of camera work. It is one of those films that lingers with you for a while afterwards.
