　　1990年，一艘巨大的飛船出現(xiàn)在地球上空，人們惶恐不安，卻又分外好奇。經(jīng)過一段時間緊張的等待，外星飛船始終沒有動靜。人類終于小心翼翼靠近它，強(qiáng)行走進(jìn)艙內(nèi)，結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)了不計其數(shù)的外星人。他們形容丑陋，宛如蝦子，而且健康狀況極差，虛弱無力。原來這是一群來自外星的難民，他們最終被地球人接納，并隔離在南非約翰內(nèi)斯堡的一片區(qū)域內(nèi)生活，此地名為“第九區(qū)”。經(jīng)過長達(dá)20年的繁衍，外星難民的數(shù)量擴(kuò)張至180萬之多，且和周邊人類的矛盾沖突不斷，越來越多的人類呼吁將“大蝦”趕出地球。　　MNU（列國同盟組織）經(jīng)過磋商，決定將外星難民遷移到更為偏遠(yuǎn)的區(qū)域。MNU外星事務(wù)部門的特工威庫斯（Sharlto Copley 飾）專門負(fù)責(zé)搬遷工作。威庫斯在動員過程中傲慢隨意，與當(dāng)?shù)鼐用駴_突頻頻。最終，他為自己的行為付出代價，外星人的神秘流體將其感染，威庫斯慢慢變成了外星人的模樣……

　　The main character is Dr. Max Holst, a successful neurosurgeon. One day an intense little man named Steinmetz shows up, who has the real ability to create objects out of thin air, using only his mind. As no one believes him at first, he is held at a ward for mental patients, but manifests the key to his door and escapes. As he has a special interest in Dr. Holst, Steinmetz subsequently invites Holst to his large mansion, which is full of expensive paintings and sculptures, and proves to him that he can in fact materialise objects. Steinmetz’s abilities are evolving by leaps and bounds, and is progressing from being able to create objects only to being able to create living things. His ultimate ambition is to be able to create a human being. He tells Dr. Holst that if he will only perform a certain brain operation on him, Steinmetz will become able to attain his goal. He’s got all the necessary equipment set up in his basement. Dr. Holst, however, is too spooked by the whole thing to agree to this mad scheme, and refuses. Steinmetz then sets about manipulating Holst’s life, to pressure him into performing the operation. By then Steinmetz has become able to create a temporary human being, and in the hope that he can perhaps make his own creation perform the operation, he manifests a doppelganger of Dr. Holst. This double proceeds to take over Dr. Holst’s life, creating chaos for him professionally and personally. And then Dr. Holst starts fighting back. The ending has the dual virtue of being both unexpected and satisfying.
