District 9

Photobucket
"These aliens arrived 20 years ago in a dead, derelict mothership, which hovers above Johannesburg. It’s enormous, like the size of 10 football fields. The aliens have ended up in a Soweto-style township beneath the ship. It’s clear that they’re not really integrating into society. They like to scavenge things, rip up train tracks. So the authorities shift them 200 miles away, into the African belt. They’ve built a concentration camp." Peter Jackson


"District 9 is an upcoming science fiction film directed by Neill Blomkamp [...] based on Alive in Joburg [...].

Marketing for the film involves various viral campaigns. The official website for the film, D-9.com, is supposedly run by Multi-National United, an in-film company. When you first enter, you have two possible choices, either Human or Non-Human, and the content and tone of the website differs for each.

MNUSpreadsLies.com is a fictional blog run by a Non-Human equal rights advocate, arguing that Multi-National United is oppressing the Non-Human race." Wikipedia
