In 1977, two respected scientists, Ben Morin (Matthew Goode) and his wife Catherine O’Neal (Toni Collette), quit their jobs at the university to conduct an experiment they think will revolutionize our understanding of human identity. The project aims to raise three children contrarily to their genetic predispositions to prove the ultimate power of nurture over nature. The two researchers want to prove that everyone has the same potential to become anything.
