It was hugely controversial when it came out, and though it may seem tame today, it may have you thinking twice the next time you sit down at your "workstation"...

The film "Gattaca" takes place in a future in which society is driven by eugenics. In this clip, we see the story of Vincent's (played by Ethan Hawke) inauspicious beginnings as a naturally conceived child with a very limited life expectancy.

In the film "Gattaca," Vincent is born with an expected lifespan of 32 years, prompting his parents to use genetic selection for their next child, Anton. Anton is always stronger and faster than Vincent, although one incident makes Vincent consider that genetics may not determine everything.

Vincent uses the perfect DNA of Jerome Eugene Morrow, a former swimming star paralyzed due to a car accident, in order to land a job at Gattaca Aerospace Corporation and achieve his dream of space travel.

After the murder of the mission director, Vincent is convinced that Gattaca will find out he is not actually Jerome Morrow. In this clip, the real Jerome Eugene Morrow tries to convince Vincent that his identity is safe.

Vincent (Ethan Hawke) and Irene's (Uma Thurman) date is interrupted by Detective Hugo (Alan Arkin), who is leading a team that is searching for an imposter. Since Vincent has been pretending to be Jerome, he and Irene have to leave quickly.
