Æon Flux
The perfect world meets the perfect assassin.
Directed by Karyn Kusama
Produced by Paramount Pictures, Lakeshore Entertainment
A visually stylized cyberpunk action thriller set in a dystopian future, driven by martial arts spectacle and espionage intrigue rather than emotional depth.
400 years into the future, disease has wiped out the majority of the world's population, except one walled city, Bregna, ruled by a congress of scientists. When Æon Flux, the top operative in the underground 'Monican' rebellion, is sent on a mission to kill a government leader, she uncovers a world of secrets.
