The movie is set in the C.E. (Cosmic Era) timeline, where there are two types of humans - Coordinators, who possess superior physical and mental abilities due to genetic modification, and Naturals, who are born naturally. The clash between these groups escalates into a war, during which the Destiny Plan is proposed. However, the plan is ultimately rejected in order to preserve humanity's aspirations and future freedom.
