who make up half the city's population. Under the strict guidance of a
supercomputer, humanity's last survivors enjoy an idyllic peace, but only on the
surface Human terrorists within the military seek a return to power and clash
with the government's ESWAT forces lead by the legendary soldier, Deunan Knute,

conflict, and Deunan alone holds its secret. The outstanding feature film based
