Dystopia: Inside the cities, ultra-capitalist and authoritarian governments have absolute control, including over human memories. Meanwhile, the outside world is a desert populated by the poor and homeless. | |

The Empath: William takes pills which give him an "empathy virus", allowing him to probe the emotions of the people he investigates. The government decides an error in the virus caused him to fall in love with Maria, sparing him, but not her, from exile. | |

Good Girls Avoid Abortion | |
| Code 46 / int_8387bb18 | comment |
Good Girls Avoid Abortion: Inverted. The authorities give Maria an abortion without her consent because William had got her pregnant, and wipe her memory afterward. It's because she's a clone of his mother, which violates the "Code 46" of the title. | |

Sympathetic Adulterer | |
| Code 46 / int_85cefc44 | comment |
Sympathetic Adulterer: William has a wife and child; he seems to get along with them just fine, but we're still meant to sympathize with him as he conducts an affair with Maria. This is because the corporations seem to choose people's partners for them (due to issues of genetic compatibility, hence the film's title), making William and Maria's relationship a rare display of pure love. | |

Mind Control | |
| Code 46 / int_a19135a6 | comment |
Mind Control: The government keeps the public in check by wiping the memories of past delinquents, or by implanting special "viruses" which make people unable to commit certain infringements, such as forbidden intercourse. Repeat offenders get exiled to the desert. | |

Le Film Artistique | |
| Code 46 / int_ef2fcbe1 | comment |
Le Film Artistique: The film is shot in a rather cold and dispassionate, almost documentary style, which does little to set up or explain the rules of this world. The viewer is dropped straight into the proceedings and trusted to work out how several aspects of the depicted future reflect the time in which the film was shot. | |
