Gattaca is possibly one of the most inspiring movies I have ever seen. The movie is about a man, an ordinary man fighting for his dream in a world of Superhumans. The movie shows the victory of human spirit wrapped around a thriller which will make you love and hate the future and its possibilities. The tag line of the movie is simply brilliant… “There Is No Gene For The Human Spirit.”

The movie shows a possible future where new babies born into the world are genetically selected to produce almost perfect humans. Disease, Time of Death and capacity of the individual determined by a test at birth is like an id on each human. There is open discrimination not in race, color, caste, religion or creed but between the more able and the unfortunate and less able.
