В мире фильма «Дитя человеческое» помимо религиозного терроризма и национальных столкновений на почве конфликтов коренных жителей и мигрантов, выбрана ещё одна важная деталь — наступившее у всех поголовно женщин на Земле бесплодие, причины которого неизвестны, но известен печальный итог, к которому всё идёт — то, что не смогли войны, голод, экология, болезни, рано или поздно довершит время.
Thank you.
Thank you.

infertility affecting every last woman on Earth
Or barrenness.
Reminds me of the Čapek play about robots, "R.U.R.", which begins with a news report saying that once again no babies had been born in the world that week (no need for humans now that robots could run the planet).

all women on Earth became sterile
I would say "bare" but in this context a reader may think they all are running around nude :)
