Ã†on Flux	comment	Ã†on Flux is a 2005 live-action film directed by Karyn Kusama and based loosely on the iconic animated series of the same name by Peter Chung. It starred Charlize Theron as the assassin Ã†on Flux, but otherwise was so far divorced from the original material that Peter Chung was embarrassed to have it associated with him.In the year 2011, a devastating virus wiped out 99% of the world's population. The remaining survivors live in the idyllic city of Bregna, but like all post-apocalyptic utopias, everything is not as it seems. Ã†on Flux is a member of a rebel group known as the Monicans who seek to undermine the government (or something), but when her sister Una is taken on suspicion of also being a Monican (she's not) and Ã†on is sent to kill the government's leader, Trevor Goodchild, she ends up uncovering secrets about Bregna that pretty much throw her ideas about herself and her world down the stairs.

Ã†on Flux / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag: At the start of the film, Ã†on grabs a fly with her eyelashes, as in the intro of the cartoon. Trevor died an unknown number of times. Because they were clones. (Although actually Trevor only dies twice at most in the cartoon series, in "Tide" and possibly in one timeline of "Chronophasia," it's Ã†on who keeps dying. The movie has Ã†on die only once.)

This causes mental illness in the population as flashes of them bleed through. It also serves as kind of biological Past-Life Memories with Aeon. In the Goodchilds' case though they simply passed them down.

Secret within the secret: not only did he find a cure, but women were starting to conceive naturally. But Orin had the test subjects and the pregnant women murdered to keep this a secret and keep them in control. He even went so far as to attempt a coup in order to keep his secret.
