When she wakes, the impact of technology and AI in this future are apparent, with a giant eye animation dismissing how dreams are "so 20th century".

However, Rachel confides in a friend that she hasn't yet told Alvy about the opportunity, as he would prefer that the couple conceive by themselves.
However, as the trailer unfolds, Alvy, a botanist who is keen for his child to have nature at the heart of their life, to comes around to the idea of the pods. And so, the pair embark on a journey of parenthood together.
Sophie Barthes directs The Pod Generation, with the movie also starring 1899's Rosalie Craig and The Lazarus Project's Vinette Robinson and Jean-Marc Barr.
