This German science fiction thriller from 1990 is about a big pharmacy
company who works on secret genetic engineering experiments to explore the
design of artificial life. A female journalist finds out the about the
scandal and becomes a target of repression, blackmailing and terror, but she
doesn't resist and fights the power...
This films is well done and very thrilling and features some very good
German actors like Katharina Thalbach, Heinz Hoenig, Hannelore Elsner and
movie veteran Hans-Christian Blech, but the plot itself - a frightening
fiction back in 1990 - seems a bit old-fashioned these days. Days have
passed and genetic engineering has progressed, so the horror utopia behind
this story has been overtaken by reality already. But don't care about this
and enjoy this well-made German cyber thriller from the last century!
