What is now almost 28 years ago, the aliens made there first contact with Earth. All of mankind waited for what they thought would surely be a catastrophic attack, or tremendous advances in technology. Neither happened. Instead, the aliens were made to be refugees, the last survivors of a distant planet. The aliens were set up in ramshackle homes in South Africa’s controversial refugee camp known as " District 9 " while the world’s governments argued over how to handle them.

With there patience over the alien situation has run its course. Ultimate control over the creatures has been contracted out to a newly formed organization known as "Multi-National United" (MNU), a privately held company with no interest in the aliens’ well being — they would receive tremendous financial gains if they can make the aliens’ awesome weaponry work. Up to this point, they have failed; in order to use the weapons it would require alien DNA.
The bad blood between the creatures and the humans comes to a boil when an MNU field soldier, Wikus van der Merwe, is stricken with a mysterious virus that starts to alter his DNA. Wikus soon becomes the most valuable man in the world, as well as the most hunted — Wikus is the only way to unlock the secrets of alien technology. Now an outcast ,hunted and with no friends , there was only one place on earth that he could hide: District 9.
