The Rapture
Johnny K. Wu
"The Rapture" is the story of two bio-engineered humans, Job and
Midael, destined to become living weapons for the military until they
are spirited away by the female scientist who created them. Dubbed
"Chimaera" by the brilliant but secretive woman they call "Mother",
the two are raised in hiding, each learning to use his own special
abilities: Midael with his razor-sharp organic metal wings, and Job
with his scorpion-like tail and ability to manipulate energy. But
secrets inevitably reveal themselves, and conflict inevitably arises,
from within as well as without. For such is human nature. And Chimaera
are still human, after all...

Your second chance to see this sold-out Saturday night film!
