Plot
The film opens with a tied and hooded woman being taken to some sort of jail run by the British military.Nine years later, military technicians and video gamers; Tom and Vic perform a training exercise for several candidates for a special force.
They smuggle their top secret, virtual warfare program into a disused prison, to experiment with it using two of the candidates.
What should first be a thrill becomes a deadly reality, as a vengeful outsider has manipulated the software and kidnapped them. When their companion Jess hears of this, they begin a seemingly hopeless rescue mission, but is also drawn into this virtual world. A world which can be just as deadly as real warfare.
