This Weekend I've seen Island, film Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson whose argument is a fiction about things that are going to sound increasingly familiar as are human cloning, spare parts and organ transplants and a lack of respect all human beings that leads to a slavery worse than the cruelest ever known.
In briefest summary, is a multi-million dollar private U.S. company is dedicated to clone people taking them to the chronological age of cloned for use as spare parts, replacement uterus and many other applications, which implies use and subsequent disposal as they are "products" as charged.
Nobody makes some question whether the "products" are as human beings as the "original" because all that matters are the purposes for which they paid high prices, but they are, and what that triggers the action that the worst of the film, to my mind, but of course, cinema is also an industry and the millions invested were rent, and careers, bombs, shootings and chases with the beautiful stars point to to there, but remain in the air as the questions we should all ask ourselves and not all made ....

- why do not we realize that with the poor and utilitarian concept of human dignity in vogue, we are on our "progress"?
- what difference does have an unborn child or an adult to remove it, use it to experiment, to steal the stem cells, enslave, etc?
- other person could own another human being because it "created" with their technology and money?
Uhhhhh grounds that there is substance in this story! It reminds me of Aldous Huxley in "Brave New World , only the old man had so close to facts that put us on the threshold of horror.
