The 6th Day

In a near‑future where the science of cloning has already transformed pets and livestock, society teeters on the edge of a new moral frontier. The everyday acceptance of animal copies stands in stark contrast to a tightly guarded prohibition against human replication, a rule known only as the “Sixth Day.” The world feels sleek and clinical, yet an undercurrent of unease runs through cityscapes and boardrooms alike, suggesting that the line between natural life and engineered duplicate is more porous than the law admits.

Adam Gibson is a pragmatic charter pilot who cherishes the ordinary rhythms of family life with his wife Katherine and their bright‑spirited daughter Clara. When a routine medical check tied to his work uncovers a shocking truth—that a perfect copy of him has already been introduced into his home—Adam is thrust into a bewildering reality where his identity, memories, and very sense of self are called into question. The discovery shatters the safety of his domestic world and pulls him into a sprawling, high‑tech landscape where corporate ambition and clandestine research blur the boundaries of humanity.

The film’s tone blends tense, edge‑of‑the‑seat thriller energy with a thoughtful, almost philosophical meditation on what it means to be unique in a world that can duplicate flesh and mind. As Adam wrestles with the implications of his unexpected double, the story hints at a larger, hidden conspiracy that threatens to upend personal relationships and societal norms alike. The atmosphere is charged with suspense, but also with a lingering curiosity about the ethical costs of playing god, setting the stage for a gripping exploration of identity, family, and the fragile line between authenticity and imitation.
