ULTRAVIOLET takes place in the late 21st century, in the years following a global pandemic of a blood-borne, highly infectious disease known as hemophagia. Those afflicted with the disease are referred to as hemophages, and have many super-human attributes akin to vampires. Using fear of the contagious disease to seize power and keep the population in check, a militant medical establishment known as the Arch-Ministry takes control of the government and begins rounding up and exterminating all infected citizens. The hero of the film is Violet Song jat Shariff (Milla Jovovich), a young woman who was infected with hemophagia, in the process losing both her husband and her unborn child. Violet is now an emotionally dead killing machine, a member of an underground resistance movement of hemophages waging a guerilla war against the Arch-Ministry and its megalomaniacal, germaphobic leader, Vice-Cardinal Ferdinand Daxus.
