Gattaca is a 1997 dystopian science fiction film about a "not-too-distant" future where eugenics and genetic discrimination are widespread. It stars Ethan Hawke as Vincent Freeman, a genetic "in-valid" who makes an arrangement with Jerome Eugene Morrow, portrayed by Jude Law, to assume his identity in order to join the space program. Uma Thurman stars as Vincent's love interest Irene.
The fandom's main pairing is Vincent Freeman/Jerome Morrow (aka "Freemorrow").[1]
