It’s 2065. Environmental and social chaos are poised to disrupt all life on Earth. Michael Khan, a geneticist struggling to save his wife from a deadly virus, is recruited by a secret organization to engineer the next stage in the evolution of Homo sapiens. When the military learns of his research, they force him to help create a bio-weapon to be used against rebel groups who are threatening civil war. Desperate to save humanity before they wipe themselves out, Michael genetically modifies over one hundred children. Ironically, though, they start to breed diseases that are deadly to Homo sapiens, and he is arrested for bio-terrorism. Now, Michael isn’t only fighting for the life of his wife, but for his own life, the lives of his modified children, and those of millions of civilians about to be wiped out by diseases he is responsible for creating. The problem is — he can’t save them all.
