Z.P.G.

“Smog covers the earth. The oxygen is depleted. Love is encouraged. But the penalty for birth is death. The time Is tomorrow and there's no time left.”
In the not too distant future, an overpopulated Earth government makes it illegal to have children for a generation. One couple, unsatisfied with their substitute robot baby, breaks the rules.
