In a dystopian future, where technology has advanced by leaps and bounds and chaos reigns in the streets, a young motorcycle runner named Alex Furlong leads an impulsive and reckless life. His world takes a 180-degree turn when, in the midst of a race, he is caught in a violent accident and, instead of dying, he is “transported” to the year 2009. However, Alex is not safe; he has become a target in a society where the rich can transfer their consciousness into young, healthy bodies. In this new world, he discovers that his original body has been claimed by a technology magnate who craves to possess his physical form to escape his own decrepitude.
As Alex tries to adapt to his new reality, he encounters a group of rebels fighting against the abusive system that controls lives and deaths. With the help of an enigmatic woman named Julie, he embarks on a frantic race to reclaim his life and escape the clutches of his pursuers, who are willing to do anything to recover what they consider “their property.”
With relentless chases, a strong commentary on the importance of identity and the human essence, and a cast that includes stars like Emilio Estevez, Mick Jagger, and René Russo, this adventure blends action, science fiction, and a dose of existential philosophy, all wrapped in a vibrant 90s tone. The race for freedom has never felt so intense.
