On 4 July 1961, the Soviet Union's first nuclear submarine, K-19, is in trouble; a coolant tube has sprung a leak that most certainly could lead to its nuclear reactor overheating. K-19's Captain Alexei Vostrikov (Harrison Ford) makes decisions that upset the crew, while the submarine's previous commander, Captain Mikhail Polenin (Liam Neeson), who has been demoted to K-19's executive officer, resists tensions between the two and works with Vostrikov to save the ship and to solve a problem that could have worldwide repercussions. Based on a true story.

In this story, which is set in the future, people are living in the comfort and safety of their homes and communicate with others through robot surrogates. When two surrogates and their owners are killed, FBI agents Greer (Bruce Willis) and Peters (Radha Mitchell) are assigned the case and, in the process, must abandon their surrogate world and venture outside their homes for the first time in years. Clues lead to The Prophet (Ving Rhames) who leads a group of people who have chosen to live their lives together–unlike those in the rest of the world who communicate only through surrogates.
