18 Years Passed Since The Last Baby Was Born Leaving Humans Desperate in Finding Ways to Reproduce

 


Movie: Children of Men

In the year 2027, Earth faces an ecocide due to human activities, causing widespread environmental devastation. Eighteen years of human infertility, war, and global depression push the world to the brink of collapse. The United Kingdom stands as one of the last nations with a functioning government, albeit transformed into a police state where immigrants face arrest, imprisonment, or execution.


Theo Faron, once an activist turned cynical bureaucrat, is abducted by the Fishes, a militant immigrant rights group led by his estranged wife, Julian Taylor. The couple separated following the death of their son during a 2008 flu pandemic. Julian offers Theo money to secure transit papers for a young refugee woman named Kee. Theo, obtaining the documents from his government minister cousin, agrees to escort Kee in exchange for a larger sum. As they head towards Canterbury with Fishes leader Luke and former midwife Miriam, an armed gang ambushes them, resulting in Julian's death. The group hides her body and heads to a safe house after killing two police officers.


Kee reveals to Theo that she is pregnant, the only known pregnant woman in the world. Julian had planned to take her to the Human Project, a research group in the Azores dedicated to curing infertility, which Theo doubts exists. Luke becomes the new Fishes leader, and Theo learns they orchestrated Julian's death to promote Luke's leadership. The Fishes intend to use Kee's baby as a political tool. Theo, Kee, and Miriam escape to Theo's reclusive friend Jasper Palmer's hideaway. Jasper, a former political cartoonist, lost his wife to government torture.


The group plans to reach the Human Project ship, the Tomorrow, offshore at Bexhill, a notorious immigrant detention center. Jasper plans to use Syd, an immigration officer, to smuggle them into Bexhill. The Fishes discover Jasper's house, and Theo watches as Luke murders Jasper. They meet with Syd, board a bus into the camp, and Kee gives birth with Marichka's help. War breaks out between the British military and refugees, and the Fishes infiltrate the camp. Syd reveals a bounty on Theo and Kee, attempting to capture them. Theo and Marichka subdue Syd, escaping but are ambushed by the Fishes, who capture Kee and the baby.


Theo tracks them to an apartment building under heavy fire. Confronting Luke, an explosion kills him, and Theo rescues Kee and the baby. The trio, with Marichka's guidance, heads to the boat. Marichka chooses to stay behind as they depart. British fighter jets strike Bexhill, and Theo, wounded by Luke earlier, teaches Kee how to care for her baby. She names the baby Dylan, after Theo's and Julian's lost son. Theo smiles weakly, loses consciousness, and dies as the Tomorrow approaches. Children's laughter is heard as the screen cuts to black.

My Strange Hero

Once upon a time in the quaint town of Eldoria, where magic whispered through the ancient trees and mysteries lingered in every corner, lived a young woman named Amelia. Amelia was an ordinary girl with an extraordinary secret – she could see the invisible threads that connected people's hearts and emotions. Amelia's life took a peculiar turn when she discovered an old, dusty book hidden in the attic of her family's ancestral home. The book, titled "The Chronicles of the Heartbound," revealed the existence of Heart Guardians – individuals with the rare ability to sense and mend the delicate threads of human connection. As Amelia delved deeper into the pages of the ancient tome, she realized that her destiny was entwined with a prophecy that spoke of a strange hero. This hero was foretold to appear in the town's darkest hour, armed not with swords or magic spells, but with an understanding of the invisible bonds that tied the community together. Eldoria, unbekn

The Power of Silence

" - Lao Tzu In the peaceful hills of Japan, there lived a Zen monk named Takeshi, known for his wisdom and simplicity. One day, a young student, Hiroshi, came to learn from him. What Hiroshi discovered in Takeshi's teachings would change his life forever. Takeshi took Hiroshi to a bamboo grove and instructed him to sit in silence among the rustling bamboo. Initially confused, Hiroshi couldn't fathom the purpose of this exercise, but he trusted Takeshi and continued. Months passed, and Hiroshi noticed changes. He became more aware of his surroundings, observing the details of the bamboo, the songs of the birds, and the whispers of the wind.
