Soldier is a sci-fi action film released in 1998 about an elite group of soldiers in the future that the military develops from childhood through genetic selection and brutal training. The protagonist, Todd, is part of this elite group of soldiers, and he receives rigorous military training from an early age to become a ruthless warrior. However, over time, the military has developed more advanced soldiers, and these new soldiers not only have greater combat abilities, but are also implanted with high-tech equipment that makes Todd and his fellow soldiers obsolete.

Considered useless after a failed mission, Todd was abandoned and dumped on a distant, abandoned planet. This planet is inhabited by people forgotten by society, who seek resources from the ruins to survive. Here, Todd experiences emotional challenges and human trials like he has never experienced before. He begins to question his lifelong training and beliefs while fighting to protect the planet's inhabitants, and ultimately finds his own humanity and sense of belonging.
