Vincent is one of the last "natural" babies born into a sterile, genetically-enhanced world, where life expectancy and disease likelihood are ascertained at birth. Myopic and due to die at 30, he has no chance of a career in a society that now discriminates against your genes, instead of your gender, race or religion. Vincent doesn't accept his fate, however, and he strives to beat the system.
This is one of the smartest and most provocative of science fiction
films, a thriller with ideas.--Roger Ebert
