This low-budget science-fiction drama, winner of a 1997 Toronto Film Festival prize for "Best Canadian First Feature," depicts the plight of a group of people clad in prison-style uniforms and trapped in futuristic cube-like metal cells. Their memories are hazy; no one can recall how they got there. Alderson (Julian Richings) awakens in a cell, seeks an exit, and arrives in an adjacent cube where he's sliced and diced. Former cop Quentin (Maurice Dean-Wint) becomes the group leader, and he's challenged by conspiracy theorist Dr. Holloway (Nicky Guadagni). Government worker Worth (David Hewlett) remembers a past government link to the project. A discovery that the cubes have numerical codes suggests study by math-student Leaven (Nicole deBoer) while former thief Rennes (Wayne Robson) knows some escape tricks. However, the extreme behavior of Kazan (Andrew Miller) becomes a threat to their survival. The film was also shown at the 1997 Vancouver Film Festival. ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

    Classic independant sci-fi/horror film. It makes you think, and keeps you on the edge of your seat. The character construction was done in a way to have you guess who each person was, and try to solve the mystery with everyone else. Must see! Random piece of trivia: all of the characters' last names were based on of the names of different prisons.

    There are several reviews on this...some good, some bad. Nevertheless, this is a must see (I personally really loved it).

    It was ok but the entire movie left unanswered questions as to why these people were put here in the first place.
