In an attempt to correct her (Costas Mandylor) hearing after she became deaf from the sound of gunshots, the experiment went too well. Now she is of value to some people and a threat to others. How is she going to get out of this pickle?
A well-executed formula movie. At one time, we were intrigued by movies where a secret formula, or radiation, or LSD experiments create a superset of senses. And of course, the experiment has to be covered up. The main experimentee is usually more moral than the experimenter. Others, usually the government, want to use the abilities for their nefarious purposes.
So, the story is not unique; however, the acting and details are exceptionally good. You can tell that this is a pilot, and it makes you wonder who will survive to make the program.
For sci-fi lovers, you may recognize George Takei (Sulu on Star Trek) and John de Lancie (Q on Star Trek: Voyager), together again.
The only thing missing would be the mystique of a missing filmmaker. Shades of Aimee Semple McPherson.
