Storyline
Caitlin Fairchild, a teenager offered a place in an institute for gifted children. She soon learns that the school isn't really a school, but rather a military project to turn children with a special genetic structure into super soldiers. After developing incredibly enhanced abilities, Caitlin rebels against the program that created her. But all is not what it appears; there are some in the military who want to help her, and a deadly enemy is actually a long lost sibling. Written by Anthony Pereyra {hypersonic91@yahoo.com}

I've known Kevin Altieri for decades. He spent a pile of his own money premiering this film years ago only to see the thing crammed into a vault at Disney because Wildstorm Comics, the publisher of the Gen 13 series, sold itself to DC Comics (owned by Time-Warner) and Disney decided it would rather eat the cost of the film than help sell a rival conglomerate's merchandise. So, an entire film swallowed whole due to studio politics. Amazingly, years later, it still sits, only viewable as a bootleg because of a minor release in Australia and Europe. Kevin just shakes his head at the waste. He did quite a job on this considering the limits of the budget. The uncut version does not feature nudity except in the slightest cheesecake variety. I disagree with a fellow poster regarding the music. Amotz Plessner (from the Czech Republic) provided an excellent score with none of the usual tinny synthesizer drivel typically larded over action-adventure animation. As for any heavy-breathing lesbian characters or material, you have to consider that this film was financed by Disney, so what would you expect? Sure, this film is not Miyazaki, or something worthy of putting in the Smithsonian, but it is a well-made little feature. And though I haven't seen the bootleg version(s) available for download, I'd be suspicious of the quality (although the original not being available it would be impossible to tell at this point).
