    The film, which is due to begin shooting in Topanga, California later this month, is "set in a dystopian society where the state has the power to determine who can and cannot father children". It follows four men as they attend a government-sanctioned retreat in the remote mountains of California where they "must prove to themselves - and each other - that they have what it takes to become fathers".
