00:00The film begins with the story of Max, who will stop at nothing to save his wife, who
00:10must give up 40 years of her life for a biotech company told in heaven.
00:15The film takes place in the not-so-distant future.
00:18A person's life can be donated to anyone whose DNA matches theirs through a biotech
00:22company called Aeon.
00:24They receive a large sum for the years in advance.
00:27The goal of Aeon's time donation managers is to persuade potential donors to devote
00:31their entire lives if they are a good match for a recipient who both needs and can afford
00:36the donation.
00:37Max Thoma is one of Aeon's donation managers, and he excels at his work to the point where
00:42he wins Employee of the Year.
00:44The CEO of Aeon, Sophie Tyson, wants to go further and find a means to entirely manage
00:50aging and death, but the Atom Group is working to stop her because Aeon views people's
00:55lives as a commodity.
00:57Additionally, time donations support inequality.
00:59They are exclusive to the wealthy.
01:02The impoverished, who reside in slums and refugee camps and give their lifetimes in
01:06the hopes of bettering their lives, die young, while the wealthy live longer.
01:11People who are given lifetimes by others are executed by the Atom Group.
01:15Max profits from the system, so he does not see any issues with it.
01:19He enjoys his joyful marriage to Elena, and the two of them now want to start a family.
01:24However, when their apartment burns down, their entire world is turned upside down.
01:29The insurance company will not cover the damages because it is thought that negligence led
01:34to the fire.
01:35The loan Max and Elena took to purchase their opulent apartment is still unpaid, and they
01:39lost everything else in the fire.
01:42Since they don't have any money, the bank will demand security instead of the mortgage
01:46they owe.
01:47When they took out the loan, Elena put up 40 years of her life as collateral, which
01:51Max subsequently learned.
01:53To stop Elena from donating all of her 40 years, Max is prepared to donate a portion
01:58of his lifetime.
01:59However, as his match recently passed away, he is unable to donate his entire lifetime.
02:05Max then asks Sophie for assistance, but she declines.
02:09Elena has had 40 years of her life violently ripped from her, and Max learns that Sophie
02:14is the one who received those years.
02:16Every day, Elena becomes older more quickly.
02:19She was expecting a child at the time of the donation, but she has since miscarried.
02:24Elena is unsure if Max is with her out of love or out of sympathy for her, but he still
02:29cares about her and wants to stay with her.
02:32Considering that Max is still young and she is considerably older, she thinks they cannot
02:37be together any longer.
02:39Max then departs after Elena.
02:41Max though, will not give up.
02:43He learns that there are further unlawful ways to obtain lifetime donations.
02:48To reclaim the years Sophie stole from Elena, he intends to capture Sophie.
02:53After successfully abducting Sophie, he persuades Elena to leave Germany with him.
02:57He is willing to take any danger because he thinks their lives are already over.
03:01Nowak, the new chief of operations for Aon in Berlin, and Kaya, Sophie's devoted bodyguard,
03:08use cutting-edge technology to monitor Max.
03:11They learn that Sophie is traveling to Lithuania with Max and Elena.
03:15They are unable to stop Max and Elena because Max always finds a way to escape difficult
03:20circumstances, even if it means endangering innocent bystanders.
03:25When the victim they abducted finally had a chance to speak, she admitted that she was
03:29Marie, Sophie's daughter, rather than Sophie.
03:33Since Sophie stole 40 years from Elena's life and got younger, it is difficult to know
03:37whether Marie is telling the truth when she says that she looks a lot like Sophie.
03:42Nobody is aware of Marie because Sophie took care to keep her hidden from view.
03:47Max won't take her word for it.
03:48He keeps waiting for Dr. Burke, who will execute the treatment on Elena and Marie against the
03:53law, to get in touch with him.
03:55Elena begins to have second thoughts about the entire situation since if Marie were to
03:59tell the truth, they would be robbing a helpless woman.
04:03Marie tries to flee, but Elena finally tracks her down.
04:06She then notes that Marie does not have surgical scars, proving that Marie is the real person
04:11and not Sophie, but Max is still resistant to the information.
04:16The ADAM group locates Max and Elena that evening, but Kaya and Nowak arrive at the
04:21couple first.
04:23Elena is the only match that Sophie has ever discovered, says Lilith, the head of the ADAM
04:27group.
04:28Her donation manager, Max, intended to persuade her to give.
04:33Instead, he developed feelings for her and wet her.
04:36Sophie devised a scheme to get Elena to devote her entire life.
04:40Only after Elena pledged her entire lifespan as security did the bank agree to loan Max
04:45and Elena the money they needed to purchase the condo, which was too pricey for the two
04:50of them to afford.
04:51To stop Max from donating some of his years when Sophie needed them, she set fire to their
04:56flat and had Max's match killed.
04:58Lilith thinks that Max and Elena are treating Marie in the same way as Sophie treated them.
05:03Elena refuses to kill Marie despite being forced to do so by the woman.
05:08Lilith points out that while individuals have no problem enabling doctors to end lives on
05:13their behalf, they become pacifists when forced to take their own lives.
05:17To find Sophie, the one who initiated all of this, Lilith will now utilize Max and Elena.
05:23Unaware that it is a trap, Kaya and Nowak arrive at the location where Marie, Max, and
05:29Elena are abducted by the ADAM group with a large group of armed men.
05:33Max is forced to follow Lilith's instructions because Elena and Marie are being held hostage
05:38by her group.
05:39Max insists on speaking with Sophie directly.
05:42He persuades Sophie to accompany him inside when he gets out of the car so they may visit
05:47Marie.
05:48Kaya inquires at the last minute about Max's knowledge of Sophie's presence with them.
05:52She recognizes it's a trap when Max doesn't respond.
05:56Nowak works for the ADAM group.
05:58When the group's attempt to abduct Sophie fails, he attempts to kill her.
06:02He kills Sophie with a shot before Kaya kills him.
06:05As a result, a shootout breaks out between Kaya's crew and the ADAM group and Lilith
06:10is fatally wounded.
06:12Max can return within the structure when shots are being exchanged between the two sides.
06:17To get to Elena and Marie, he must engage in combat.
06:20Marie refuses to accompany him as he attempts to flee with the two women.
06:25She even pulls the trigger as she points a gun at Elena.
06:28But there are no bullets in the rifle.
06:30Marie experiences pain from Elena until she passes out.
06:34Then Max, Elena, and Marie flee together.
06:37This time, Max is the one who is hesitant to proceed with the gift, while Elena is determined
06:42to do everything it takes to get her lifetime back.
06:46Max argues that Marie is not the one who stole from Elena because she is innocent.
06:51Elena wants her lifetime back while knowing that Marie won't be able to obtain her years
06:55back from her mother since Sophie is now deceased because Marie is Sophie's daughter and hence
07:00has Elena's DNA.
07:02Elena urges Max to leave after he explains to her that he cannot harm Marie in this way.
07:07If he does not listen, she says she will kill herself.
07:10Max is left with no alternative except to watch helplessly as Elena and Marie escape.
07:16Elena brings Marie to Dr. Berg, where she witnesses her fight and screams similarly
07:20to how she did when her life was abruptly ripped from her.
07:24Following the procedure, Elena gains 40 years of Marie's life.
07:28Elena witnesses the illegal taking of refugee children's lives by bringing them to Dr.
07:32Berg and flees the scene as quickly as she can.
07:35A hurt Marie is discovered wandering the road alone as Max arrives at a Lithuanian refugee
07:40camp.
07:42Sophie was wearing a bulletproof jacket when Noak shot her.
07:45Thus, it turns out she did not die.
07:48Marie is delivered to her mom.
07:50Kaya leaves her employment because she no longer wants to perform Sophie's dirty work
07:54now that she is safe.
07:56Marie begins aging quickly as a result of Elena taking away 40 years of her life.
08:02Sophie and Marie are a match, but Sophie won't give her daughter 40 years.
08:06Marie is forced to bear the cost of her mother's transgressions.
08:10Later, Max spots Elena and another man on a beach.
08:14She is pregnant and young once more.
08:16Max, though, has turned into a vigilante.
08:19He wants to put a stop to the unfairness caused by lifetime donations.
08:23He is a member of the ADAM group.
