In 2030 the world is in a permanent state of economic recession and facing serious environmental problems as a result of global warming.

Movie Overview
"The Humanity Bureau", directed by Rob W. King and released in 2017, is a dystopian science-fiction action thriller. The plot unfurls in the United States, which is suffering from global warming, economic collapse, and civil discontent in the year 2030. The government hence forms 'The Humanity Bureau', an organization to exile citizens considered ineffective to a utopian center called New Eden. Nicolas Cage plays the character Noah Kross, an impassive and driven agent of the Bureau.

The Plot
Noah Kross's task includes determining and moving unproductive members of society to New Eden, a supposed haven removed from the distressed society. His world view changes drastically when he is dispatched to examine the status of Rachel Weller, played by Sarah Lind, a single mom living in a desert wasteland with her boy Lucas, played by Jakob Davies.

Kross quickly understands that Lucas, who has extraordinary knowledge beyond his years, is the child of a top federal government official. This officer had actually defected from the facility after establishing a guilt-trip for crafting the inhumane policies of The Humanity Bureau. Sensing that Lucas and Rachel were incorrectly deemed unprofitable and exilable, Noah chooses to help them escape to the Canadian border.

Conflict and Revelation
While in pursuit of their objective, Kross learns the shocking fact about New Eden: rather than being a paradise, it's a ploy to euthanize people sent out there, freeing resources for the privileged class.

The government becomes conscious of Kross's disobedience and fugitive status. His former good friend and associate, Adam Westinghouse, enacted by Hugh Dillon, is tasked with stopping them. Regardless of an unrelenting hunt and several awesome vehicle goes after, they handle to evade Westinghouse. The plot magnifies with a fight in between Noah and Adam, where Noah's redemptive path awakens feelings of betrayal, regret and an ultimate resolution to stop the atrocities of the Bureau.

Conclusion
To expose the reality of The Humanity Bureau and the government's lies, Noah relays a recording detailing New Eden's and the Burau's horrific truth to the populace. Although he sacrifices his life in the process, his actions meet the objective of revealing the government's atrocious practices, providing hope and opportunities of resistance to the downtrodden population.

In the end, Rachel and Lucas make it to the Canadian border, a totally free land where their lives are no longer under the control of the inhumane company.

Motion picture Themes
"The Humanity Bureau" checks out styles like climate modification, governmental control, disposability of the poor, and human redemption. Nicolas Cage's performance as Kross successfully represents the change from an unquestioning government agent to rebel turncoat, offering viewers a reflection on morality in desperate times.

While the movie adopts familiar action-thriller tropes such as automobile chases and shootouts, it is driven by the bigger dystopian science-fiction premise delivering thought-provoking concepts of future society coming to grips with extreme options to sustain human civilization.
