Absolon (film)

Absolon is a 2003 post-apocalyptic science fiction thriller film directed by David Barto and starring Christopher Lambert, Lou Diamond Phillips, and Kelly Brook.

The plot concerns a future society where the only hope for survival from a deadly virus is a drug called Absolon.

Norman Scott (Christopher Lambert) is the policeman assigned to investigate the crime.

He is given a partial dosage of the cure the scientist had been working on, but soon realizes that he is being hunted by an assassination team.

Eventually, he finds out that the cure he was carrying was not for the original virus, which had died out years ago, but for the worldwide dependence on the addictive Absolon drug itself, which had changed everyone's body chemistry to the point that they could not live without it.
