>>It's nice to see movies that are open to interpretation.<<I concur.
Even though the director left it open to interpretation, there is enough of a hint. The near-simultaneous global infertility indicates that this is a man-made, not natural, flu-related phenomenon: a bioterrorism attack by simultaneous global release of a pathogen. An organization like Om Shinrikiyo (remember Asaharu Oh?) would try to do this. One wonders how long scientists would take to identify the cause and look for a cure. Would they have enough time? Would politicians be able to pacify a panicking society long enough for cure discovery before global anarchy broke out? IMO, all these background details would just bog down the modern story of the Nativity told by Cuaron, though they could make for an interesting, conventional science fiction film.

- Sort of agree, but the open-ended aspect of Cuaron's tale also provides an easy cop-out that arguably weakens the story. - Audiophilander 11:27:36 01/11/07 (4)
