Six children are identified by a team of UNESCO researchers investigating child development The children have extraordinary powers of intellect and are all able to complete a difficult brick puzzle in exactly the same amount of time
British psychologist Tom Lewellin Ian Hendry and geneticist David Neville Alan Badel are intereste...[显示全部]d in Paul a London boy whose mother Diana Sheila Allen clearly hates the child and insists she was never touched by a man This is initially dismissed as hysteria and it is implied she has loose morals But after a while the two men realize that all six children were born without a father and are also capable of telepathy
The children from various countries – China India Nigeria the Soviet Union the United States of America and the UK – are brought to London for a collective study into their advanced intelligence However the children escape from their embassies and gather at an abandoned church in Southwark London They intermittently take mental control of Pauls aunt Ferris to help them survive in the derelict church Meanwhile the military debates whether or not to destroy them The children have demonstrated the capacity for telekinesis and construct a complex machine which uses sonic waves as a defensive weapon which kills several government officials and soldiers But the military realizes that they only fight back when attacked After psychologist Tom Lewellin makes a passionate plea asking the group to return to their respective embassies the children obey and murder embassy and military officials before returning to the church
Lewellin urges the government to give the children leeway However his team of scientists observe the difference between an ordinary human blood cell and the cells of one of the children thereby implying the children to be nonhuman and destined to become a threat to the human race
When authorities try to take control of the children they are forced to protect themselves As the situation escalates into a final showdown between the military and the children one of the scientists postulates that the judgment of the children being alien was incorrect and that the childrens cells are in fact human advanced by a million years Meanwhile the children also imply they have arrived at the decision their presence is incompatible with that of basic humans and therefore they intend to lower their defences and sacrifice themselves The military commander recognizes a mistake has been made and aborts the attack command However the command is triggered accidentally by a screwdriver – one of the simplest of basic mans machines The church is destroyed and the children are killed
