Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })A 2016 Science Fiction Dystopia Romance film starring Nicholas Hoult as Silas, a digital artist, and Kristen Stewart as Nia, a historian colleague of Silas's who corrects Silas on the accuracy of the illustrations he produces. Follows in the footsteps of many similar Science Fiction Dystopian works, in which the story is set in a post-apocalyptic future where the remaining humans live in the technologically-advanced 'Collective', have undergone fetal genetic reprogramming to turn off emotions, and emotions as a whole are considered a dangerous, socially destabilizing illness known as S.O.S., or 'Switched On Syndrome'.Of course, the two protagonists end up falling in love.

Bittersweet Ending: Silas and Nia eventually escape the Collective into the unknown outside world, but Nia is pregnant and Silas doesn't love her anymore as he can no longer feel emotion. The film ends with Silas and Nia on the train, without showing if they were picked up by a pilot as arranged to successfully get them out of the Collective.

Bait-and-Switch: Played for Drama, plot-wise. When Nia undergoes a checkup for conception duty, she resignedly asks if she has S.O.S., which she does (she's been hiding it for over a year.) The audience expects the nurse to confirm this, but instead the nurse reveals a Plot Twist - Nia's pregnant.

Ascetic Aesthetic: The buildings, interiors, apparel, and most of the scenes in this film are sleek and minimalist, in a palette of white and shades of grey.
