Language: English

After World War III the survivors realized that no one could survive another conflict. They decided to stop all the wars by removing what, in their logic, causes the wars - feelings. They have built their whole world around that theory, they even prepared a drug called Prozium, which taken each day blocked any sort of feelings in human being. Unfortunately for them some people did not want to be liberated from their human emotions, so they stopped taking Prozium. Tetragrammaton Council was created to fight such people and stop them from... stopping to have feelings. High officer of the Council, John Preston, was shocked when his wife was arrested for not taking the drug, but one day decided to see what is so important in feelings...

Scifi movie that is painfully similar to so many classic films that it is hard to believe that someone actually did spent more than 5 minutes in putting the idea together. The plot is almost identical to Fahrenheit 451, THX 1138, 1984, parts seem to be taken from The Matrix, Brazil and other movies. Overall it is almost complete waste of time - simple story set in typical dystopian reality and with simple characters.
