Outline

The film is set in another galaxy in the year 2251. Dangerous criminals from Earth are kept at Alpha 4, a penal colony on an asteroid, in cryonic suspension. There is chaos when the computer system is hit with a virus, and the men in storage wake up and gain control of the complex, led by McMasters (Jeff Speakman). He plans a break-out, hiring the co-pilot of the prison transport shuttle and planning to kill its captain, Jessie Teegs (Maryam d'Abo). However, she proves hard to kill and teams up with a petty thief and computer hacker, Riley (Arye Gross), who has been delivered to Alpha 4 by mistake, to fight McMasters for survival. After Wilson is killed in a random act of violence by one of the inmates, McMasters needs Teegs as a pilot and captures her, trying to force her to fly the ship out for him. There is a complication because the ship can't fly without a program stored on a disk which is missing. However, Riley rescues Teegs, they find the disk, and escape with the shuttle, leaving the convicts with no way out.[2]
