The Humanity Bureau

Set in a dystopian future of the world after pollution takes its toll, Nicolas Cage is Humanity Bureau agent Noah Kross. The Humanity Bureau was established to police the people of the US to make sure everybody is doing their part to be a productive citizen and contributing to what is left of society. With those found to be undesirable or non productive being deported to a place called New Eden under the pretence that it's a better life where they are helped to be put to work and are able to live with a supply of food and water, which are scarce resources now.

Noah Kross is investigating a woman and her child and has to give them the bad news, that after analyzing their life and contributions, that they are deemed unfit to sustain themselves and contribute to society and gives them 12 hours to pack their things and move. But during his visit he learns more about them and the child and realizes his own connection to the child from his past, and then winds up saving the boy's life after he falls off a roof.

Returning home, Noah feels uneasy about this New Eden he's been deporting people to and looks into it himself, only to discover the shocking truth that it's actually a death camp of crematoriums where 7 million people have been sent to die, and that this woman and child he just deemed unfit will be next. So he heads back to rescue them and betrays his agency. Now on the run, Noah, Rachel and her child Lucas travel north to Canada to brave the radioactive landscapes and polluted lands of harsh winter to escape their fate with the Humanity Bureau hot on their heals.

Noah holds valuable information on a memory card that exposes the US Government and the Humanity Bureau for mass genocide and plans to use it to spark a revolution.

Continuity mistake: When Noah and Adam are talking and Noah is playing with his fishing pole he is reeling it in. It cuts to a close up as he talks about his mother taking him to Canada and suddenly his left arm is pulled back a bit and he's holding the pole much closer to his body. (00:08:20)
