Children of Men
It's the year 2027 and the world has been without a child born for 18 years. An unlikely hero attempts to save the human race when he tries to escort an unexpected pregnant lady of 8 months, a fugee, out of the country. Every other woman is infertile and the world does not know why. Hope is found in the form of a child's cry and laugh.
Framestore CFC did some amazing work on a particular scene that required many visual effects and some very realistic moments.
This movie's synopsis is only overshadowed by the respectable and innovative efforts of the director, Alfonso Cuaron, known for his work on Harry Potter 3. Emmanuel Lubezki, the Director of Photography for Children of Men, came up with this brilliant rig that can be explained much more clearly in this youtube video. His innovation to take the seemingly impossible and make it child's play is something I haven't seen since the days of Citizen Kane. The great choreography and timing of this film allowed for it's very long takes and less cuts during action-filled moments.
