How do you know you are human? Is it biology? Or perhaps chemistry? What sort of conditions, memories, examination (like the Turing test), knowledge, etc. would qualify you as human? Suppose you could duplicate somebody down to the last chromosome, last atom, identical DNA strands. Are you human? Who cares? It is humanity that has conjured up the definition and wants to maintain the purity of the species. Interlopers are to eradicated. Such is the case for Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer) who is being hunted by Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford). Batty wants to be human in the eyes of those born of woman before he dies. Deckard wants to retire him.
