In a world marked by cold distrust, a group of prodigious children, all with advanced intellectual abilities and dark backgrounds, attracts the attention of a disturbing British investigator. These little ones are not only extraordinarily intelligent but also possess the ability to influence the thoughts and emotions of others. While authorities try to understand the origin of these unusual abilities, the investigator realizes that these children are, in fact, the result of genetic experiments conducted during the Cold War.
The story unfolds in a tense and paranoid environment, where adults, fearful of what they do not understand, view the children as a potential threat to global stability. Each of them has witnessed horrors and traumas, forging an intense connection among them. As the investigators focus on this strange community, the children begin to reveal their visions of the future and their desire for a better world, though they do so through a veil of fear and manipulation.
The film explores deep themes such as the fear of the unknown, the power of innocence, and the struggle between good and evil. The atmosphere grows increasingly unsettling, leading to a climax that challenges the boundaries of ethics and morality. As the protagonists seek their place in a world that fears them, the adults are forced to confront their own inability to accept what is different.
