THE RESISTANCE

Manhattan, as you know it, is underwater. The government, in an effort to maintain the delicate balance between a growing population and dwindling food supplies, regulates childbirth rates in the few remaining cities. Those born illegally are hunted down and killed by lifeless corporate-sponsored machines programmed to perform the dirty work of their makers. The media embraces this law. The people embrace this law. The only opposition comes from those children whose lives are forfeit the moment they exist. What were once deadly street gangs, the poor and huddled masses have evolved into revolutionaries fighting for the basic human right to live!
