In a dystopian 2021, Johnny is a data trafficker who has an implant that allows him to securely store data too sensitive for regular computer networks. On one delivery run, he accepts a package that not only exceeds the implant's safety limits—and will kill him if the data is not removed in time—but also contains information far more important and valuable than he had ever imagined. On a race against time, he must avoid the assassins sent to kill him and remove the data before it, too, ends his life.

This film was produced in 1969 by Oak Ridge National Laboratory for the United States Atomic Energy Commission to inform the public regarding the history, technology, and milestones of the Molten Salt Reactor Experiment (MSRE). Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Molten Salt Reactor Experiment was designed to assess the viability of liquid fuel reactor technologies for use in commercial power generation. It operated from January 1965 through December 1969, logging more than 13,000 hours at full power during its four-year run. The MSRE was designated a nuclear historic landmark in 1994.

A family confined to a villa in which they live. Outside an unnatural fog that burns people that enter in contact with it. No possibility for communication with the outside, only a hypothesis about a possible cause of the phenomenon. In complete isolation, in lack of supplies, a sound of a glass breaking. Despite the thick fog outside, someone entered the villa. Maybe not everybody die in the fog...

In 2005, Mikhail Khodorkovsky was found guilty of economic crimes and sentenced to 11 years in prison. But this film is not about the most famous political prisoner. This is the reaction of the population of our country to the arrest of Khodorkovsky, recorded conversations on the streets of different cities with the first passers-by. The people's ruthlessness, the desire for blood, the joyful readiness to execute lynching themselves, saving the fatherland, over all who are smarter, richer, freer, over Jews and people of a different mentality – this is a frighteningly objective assessment of us, residents of sovereign Russia, a country whose future may never come.
