In the 23rd century humans live inside a massive domed city, protected from the harsh realities of the outside world. In the cities there are no responabilities all ones passions can be realised, for the 30 years they are allowed to live. When your Life Clock, a crsytal embaded in your palm turns red your time is nearly up when it flashes red your life is over. You either have to go through the ritual of Carousel or you run. Those who chose Carousel are under the purposely perpuated delusion that Carousel's partical form of execution may lead to "renewal" (reincarnation). Those who run do so because they believe they can escape the city and live on. The keep the runners from escaping are the sandmen, the cities police force who "terminate" runners with laser guns. The ordinary people wear clothes which match the color of their Life Clock, sandmen however dress in black.
When sandman Logan 5 turns in the belongings of a terminated runner the computer system which runs the city identifies one of the items, an anch, as the symbol of "sanctuary" a place where 1056 unaccounted for runners are believed to have escaped to. Logan is assigned to find sanctuary and destroy it. So he can show himself to be an actual runner his Life Clock is advanced four years. When he asks if he will get his four years back he receives no answer. With Jessica 6,a woman whos Life Clock is only green which means she has several years left, but who weara an anch around her neck Logan sets out to fullfil his mission. Logan and Jessica are pursued by Logan's former friend sandman Francis 7 who does not understand what Logan is doing.
The DVD includes an audio commentary, a making off documentary and the trailer. There is also a simple easteregg. From the main menu click on the red Life Clock in the palm of the large hand to get a screen which shows the age ranges for each color of the Life Clock. One side of the disc has widescreen version, the other the full screen version.
Apparently there is a remake (yuck) in the works.
