In 1954, William Golding wrote the perennial High School classic “Lord of the Flies” about a group of British boys stranded on an uninhabited island and their disastrous and often lethal attempt to develop their own society. Voyager writer and director, Neil Burger, took that idea and put it in outer space. The time is 2063. The Earth is in bad shape and a suitable planet to colonize has been found but it will take an 86-year long journey to reach it. So, a couple of dozen genetically generated children are created and raised within the confines of a contained environment deprived of a normal human experience to make the journey without feeling the loss of Earth. Along the way, they will reproduce, and raise up a few generations who will reach the planet and begin a new human colony.
