What could be worse than living with the thought of our world being filled with so many human beings that essential means of survival like food, water and other natural resources become so scarce that eventually we will be left with nothing. What follows is a search for Monday by her sisters, missing in a society that must not find them out.Overpopulation is quite possibly one of the most complicated and frightening topics of our day. Frighteningly, Monday, as Karen, goes to work one day and doesn't come home. Keeping a low profile, they go undetected as part of their large unnamed city's workforce. Now 30 years old and on their own (each is portrayed by Noomi Rapace), "Monday," "Tuesday," "Wednesday," "Thursday," "Friday," "Saturday," and "Sunday" go out into the world as "Karen" Settman only on their namesake day of the week. Aided by new technologies and a remarkable mind, Settman has managed to keep all of the girls safe. Resourceful grandfather Terrence Settman ( Willem Dafoe) has raised his granddaughters in hiding, named them for the days of the week, schooled them in the art of survival, and prepared them for a life of isolation to save their lives. Under the auspices of CAB (Child Allocation Bureau), headed by scientist Nicolette Cayman ( Glenn Close), all other children were to be frozen to await a time in which the earth would be repaired and capable of supporting more life. They were born at a time when the earth was depleted of its resources and doomed by overpopulation, burgeoning multiple births, and mutations - and only one child was permitted per family. Toward the end of the 21st century, WHAT HAPPENED TO MONDAY? finds female septuplets in grave danger.
