视频简介
A group of students who are participating in a university's summer science camp are drawn into an incredible quagmire of conflicts, ranging from the relatively simple conflict between an engaging and forthright young teacher and his older manipulative colleague, to a contest pitting political correctness against free scientific inquiry. Despite the murkiness of some of the issues in the latter conflict, the students pitch in enthusiastically on what they believe to be the side of righteousness, and passions rise to fever pitch. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide。2年前，科幻小说家大卫·戈登（约翰·库萨克 John Cusack 饰）遭受了丧妻之痛，时间并未抚平他心中的伤口，反倒令其愈感空虚。为了排遣心中的孤独，大卫决定收养一个小孩，当然这个决定遭到周围亲友的质疑和反对。不顾他人的意见，大卫领养了名叫丹尼斯（鲍比·科尔曼 Bobby Coleman 饰）的小男孩。丹尼斯虽然清秀可爱，性格却非常古怪。他自称来自火星，终日躲在纸盒子里，不与其他小朋友玩耍，喜欢用没有胶卷的相机拍照。丹尼斯的到来为大卫的生活注入活力，也为他带来久违的爱情。而随着生活的继续，大卫却发现与火星男孩的相处实非易事…… 本片根据David Gerrold的获奖科幻短篇小说改编。。影片以南非希尔布罗地区为背景，讲述朵拉在保护一名男孩免受犯罪组织侵害的过程中，逐渐陷入道德抉择的困境并开启自我救赎，最终重新找回失去的人性。。
