Josh was a "designer baby," engineered to save his brother Max from cancer. When Max is jailed for murder, the victim's sister torments Josh as he and his parents slowly lose hope of Max's (and by extension, their own) innocence. The brothers' favorite computer game effectively embodies the examination of good and evil that drives this suspenseful character drama.
