“Equals” is set in a utopian future, a world in which human emotion has been genetically “switched off” as a response to the devastation that humankind generated through war, outlawing emotion, love and sex. Silas (Hoult), an illustrator, becomes afflicted with “switched-on-syndrome,” allowing him to experience emotion, and is drawn to Nia (Stewart), a fiction writer, who’s also emotionally alive and hiding her condition. When the government announces that a cure for “switched-on syndrome” has been found, Silas and Nia have to find a way to survive.
