In a dystopian future Los Angeles, a jaded police officer named Rick Deckard is called out of retirement by the LAPD to hunt down four rogue androids called replicants who seek a longer life. The replicants, led by Roy Batty, were manufactured by the Tyrell Corporation to be used as slave labor off-world but have returned to Earth illegally. Deckard begins his investigation by testing a new replicant-detection mechanism on Rachel, an assistant to Dr. Eldon Tyrell, the founder of the Tyrell Corporation.
