Life on the Pharm

The Pharm is an economic miracle; for eighty years, sole producer of Genetically Modified organs, saving countless lives across the globe. Inside its impregnable walls, staring through razor wire, Number 987, a curious organ donor, waits patiently for his expiration date, wondering if there is more to him than the two tattoos adorning his wrist; dates of birth and harvest. Chloe, a rare un-medicated child, lives in fear of being repurposed as a donor when her parents find out that she is only pretending to take her pills. Hana, the militant midwife, a reluctant worker in the Pharm’s breeding program, waits patiently to strike a blow at the brutal industry she is forced to serve. Three lives interconnect, as they struggle to maintain their basic humanity, and escape the inescapable Pharm. Reinventing themselves, one emotion at a time, they fight back at the callous institution that seeks to enslave them and the Pharm begins to realize that it may have underestimated the power of the un-medicated human spirit.
