It revolves around a young boy named Nicolas, who lives in a small village on a remote island. Strangely, the village's population is entirely made up of young boys and adult women, and Nicolas will soon uncover the dark truth behind that unusual demographic...

!!This film includes examples of:
* BodyHorror: [[spoiler:The GlamorFailure of the village "women" is a series of pulsating suckers in their backs.]]
* DeathByChildbirth: [[spoiler:The "women" of the village haven't perfected the breeding project yet, and some of the hosts end up killed by their unfamiliarity with the surgery involved. The movie opens with Nicolas stumbling across the corpse of one of the fatalities, whilst a boy named Victor dies in "childbirth" around the film's midway point.]]
* EsotericHappyEnding: [[spoiler:Nicolas has escaped from the island and returned to human civilization... but now he's a traumatized, amnesiac orphan with nobody to look out for him in this unfamiliar land.]]
* {{Foreshadowing}}: The women of the village are seen gathering together to watch videos of caesarean sections and human childbirth at different points in the movie.
* MedicalRapeAndImpregnate: [[spoiler:The fate of all the boys on the island is to be surgically implanted with infant creatures, nourish them to the delivery point, then be delivered of their unwanted "daughters". If the boy survives, he'll be re-implanted once he's recovered; if he dies, his corpse is discarded of in the sea.]]
* MisterSeahorse: [[spoiler:For some reason, the "women" have decided that human boys would make better incubators than human girls, despite the latter being biologically suited to the role. Nicolas himself is impregnated and ultimately delivered of twin "daughters" before he escapes.]]
* SeaMonster: [[spoiler:The village's "women" are some kind of mutated or hyper-evolved sea creature, implied to be starfish.]]
* TokenHeroicOrc: [[spoiler:Stella, Nicolas' nurse during his pregnancy, ultimately decides to smuggle him off of the island and back to human civilization rather than risk him dying in a future pregnancy.]]
* TownWithADarkSecret: The whole premise of the movie is that Nicolas' little island community has something ''not right'' with it. [[spoiler:It turns out the village is actually a colony of some kind of sea-based mutant life-form that merely resembles human women, who are kidnapping human boys to use them as incubators for their offspring.]]
* TraumaticCSection: A more realistic example than some. [[spoiler:Because of their lack of familiarity with the procedure, sometimes the "women" get the caesareans wrong, resulting in the boy they are operating on bleeding to death.]]
* WombHorror: [[spoiler:The dark secret and the crux of the horror is how all the boys on the island are unwitting victims who have been gathered to serve as surrogate mothers to the nonhumans pretending to be their mothers, even if this kills them.]]
