    Storyline

    Edit
    Two strangers, Annie and Owen, sign up for a pharmaceutical test program. Over the course of the program previously-undiscovered parts of their memories and minds are revealed to them. Moreover, their dreams and sub-consciousnesses are becoming interconnected. Unknown to them, however, there is danger present - the giant computer that runs the tests has gone rogue and is threatening to destroy the program. —grantss

    Not your typical mini-series
    Psychology, anthropology, linguistics and information technology wrapped into an amazingly well-acted Sci-Fi story. At times I was confused, surprised, mystified and yet the plot was so incredibly well woven and presented. I can think of nothing better I have seen in years and watching this was time well spent.
