When 9 first comes to life, he finds himself in a post-apocalyptic world. All humans are gone, and it is only by chance that he discovers a community of other small creatures like him taking refuge from fearsome machines that roam the landscape intent on doing them harm. Despite being the neophyte of the group, 9 convinces the others that hiding will do them no good. They must take the offensive if they are ever to survive, and they must discover why the machines want to destroy them in the first place. As they’ll soon come to learn, the very future of civilization may depend on them. From the Producers Tim Burton and Timur Bekmambetov and the visionary Director Shane Acker. Screenplay by Pamela Pettler. Starring Elijah Wood, John C Reilly, Jennifer Connelly, Crispin Glover, Christopher Plummer & Martin Landau.
