Storyline:
In a not so distant
future, where overpopulation and famine have forced governments to undertake a
drastic One-Child Policy, seven identical sisters (all of them portrayed by
Noomi Rapace) live a hide-and-seek existence pursued by the Child Allocation
Bureau. The Bureau, directed by the fierce Nicolette Cayman (Glenn Close),
enforces a strict family-planning agenda that the sisters outwit by taking
turns assuming the identity of one person: Karen Settman. Taught by their
grandfather (Willem Dafoe) who raised and named them - Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday - each can go outside once a
week as their common identity, but are only free to be themselves in the prison
of their own apartment. That is until, one day, Monday does not come home.
