Thirty years ago, aliens arrive on Earth. Not to conquer or give aid, but to find refuge from their dying planet. Separated from humans in a South African area called District 9, the aliens are managed by Multi-National United, which is unconcerned with the aliens' welfare but will do anything to master their advanced technology. When a company field agent contracts a mysterious virus that begins to alter his DNA, there is only one place he can hide: District 9.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

This is cinema with character. It doesn't try to please everyone at once — it has its own position, its own intonation.

The film is honest with its audience. Doesn't promise more than it delivers — and that itself has value.

For those who find pleasure in details, not just in plot turns.

Director: Neill Blomkamp

Viewing atmosphere: With someone close, when there's time and mood. Not as background — it asks for attention.
