Synopsis

In a near future where parenthood is strictly controlled, successful couple Mia (Elizabeth Olsen) and Aaryan (Himesh Patel) must undergo an assessment by a government agent to gauge whether they’re fit to become parents. After being assigned a peculiar assessor named Virginia (Alicia Vikander), who must live with them for a week, what should be a routine test warps into something much more sinister.
