Equilibrium is set in 2072 in a country known as Libria. After a third World War, a totalitarian state emerged whose ideology determined human emotion to be the root cause of conflict. All emotionally-stimulating material is banned and "Sense Offenders" are apprehended and consigned to "combustion" (death by incineration). All citizens are required to take daily injections of Prozium to suppress emotion and encourage obedience.
