Synopsis
The Call
Connected by phone in the same home but 20 years apart, a caller puts a woman’s past — and life — on the line to change her own fate.
The Machine
Already deep into a second Cold War, Britain’s Ministry of Defense seeks a game-changing weapon. Programmer Vincent McCarthy unwittingly provides an answer in The Machine, a super-strong human cyborg. When a programming bug causes the prototype to decimate his lab, McCarthy takes his obsessive efforts underground, far away from inquisitive eyes.
