district-9

Director Neill Blomkamp teams with producer Peter Jackson for this tale of extraterrestrial refugees stuck in contemporary South Africa. It’s been 30 years since the aliens made first contact, but there was never any attack from the skies, nor any profound technological revelation capable of advancing our society. Instead, the aliens were treated as refugees.

They were the last of their kind, and in order to accommodate them, the government of South Africa set up a makeshift home in District 9 as politicians and world leaders debated how to handle the situation. As the humans begin to grow wary of the unwelcome intruders, a private company called Multi-National United (MNU) is assigned the task of controlling the aliens. But MNU is less interested in the aliens’ welfare than attempting to understand how their weaponry works. Should they manage to make that breakthrough, they will receive tremendous profits to fund their research. Unfortunately, the highly advanced weaponry requires alien DNA in order to be activated. When MNU field operative Wikus van der Merwe (Sharlto Copley) contracts an unusual virus that causes his DNA to mutate, the tensions between the aliens and the humans intensifies. Wikus is the key to unlocking the alien’s technology, and he quickly becomes the most wanted man on the planet. Ostracized and isolated, Wikus retreats to District 9 in a desperate bid to shake his dogged pursuers. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
The plot of this film has been shrouded in secrecy for quite some time, but at last certain details are coming to light. An alien race has come to earth on a one-way ticket, becoming stranded in Africa. Now seen as yet another mistrusted minority, the “non-humans” live in a dangerous ghetto and labor for little to no pay. But when a human encounters some strange non-human technology that begins to affect him in disturbing ways, his perspective on the situation changes drastically.
Three Good Reasons

* 1The film is produced by Oscar-winner Peter Jackson of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, so it’s no surprise that the digital effects have been called wonderfully subtle and grounded in reality.
* 2The film is based on an acclaimed short documentary-style film by Neill Blomkamp, called Alive in Joburg, and portions of it will incorporate the same documentary feel.
* 3If you want the Halo movie to come out, you need to help make District 9 a box office success, so that perhaps the studios will finally let Jackson and Blomkamp make the notoriously high-budget video game adaptation.

Bet You Didn’t Know
The title District 9 is most likely a reference to “District Six,” an infamous inner-city neighborhood in Cape Town, South Africa. During the apartheid regime, over 60,000 of District Six’s nonwhite residents were forced to pack up and relocate, leaving their community culture in ruins.
