In 2054 Washington D.C., a specialized unit uses "precogs"—individuals with the ability to foresee crimes—to prevent them before they occur.

Spoilers ahead

In the year 2054, the federal government is set to roll out the controversial Precrime program nationwide, following its successful six-year pilot in Washington, D.C. This revolutionary police initiative employs three clairvoyant individuals, known as the PreCogs, who possess the unique ability to glimpse visions of imminent homicides. Their psychic foresight allows law enforcement to intervene, arresting would-be killers before they commit their crimes. These criminals are then placed into an electrically induced coma within a secure prison facility, reminiscent of a Panopticon.
