Synopsis

Children of Men (2006) is Alfonso Cuarón's science-fiction thriller, and you can watch it online on iFILM. It's 2027, and no child has been born anywhere on Earth for eighteen years. Humanity is quietly running out of future.

London has hardened into a police state. Refugees are caged, raids sweep the streets, and bombs go off in coffee shops. Theo is a burned-out bureaucrat who long ago gave up caring. His ex-wife Julian drags him back in with one impossible job: smuggle a young pregnant woman named Kee out of the country, the first mother the world has seen in two decades. Clive Owen plays Theo, Julianne Moore is Julian, and Michael Caine turns up as an aging hippie hiding everyone in the woods.

Cuarón shot the film in long unbroken takes; the siege sequence near the end runs several minutes with the camera dodging gunfire. Cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki and the screenwriters all landed Oscar nominations. Stream Children of Men (2006) online on iFILM.
