In 2015, cloning animals is commonplace, but the "sixth day" law bans cloning a human being. The name comes from the day God created man, according to Genesis. Adam Gibson is a helicopter pilot living what seems like an ordinary day. When his shift ends, he heads home with one wish: to be with his family. Until that moment, the routine of flights and duties seems like any other. But when he arrives, something is wrong, because someone is already in his place with his loved ones and acts as if they were him. Adam must figure out what is going on while trying to reclaim his life. Roger Spottiswoode directs the film, and Arnold Schwarzenegger plays Adam.
