August 1996 - Chain Reaction

from Interjections: The Undiscovered Decade

For the eighth month of 1996, we witnessed the birth of a new clean energy technology…only to see it fall into the wrong hands! Keanu Reeves plays machinist Eddie Kasalivich, who inadvertently assists a Chicago team working on the energy project by discovering the final ingredient needed to make everything work. As the group celebrates, an opposing company led by the sinister Lyman Collier (Brian Cox) steals the information and murders the lead physicist Alistair Barkley. Eddie is framed as the killer alongside Barkley’s second, Dr. Lily Sinclair (Rachel Weisz), and the pair must escape into the wilderness before the FBI (led by Fred Ward) or the bad company find them. Their true leader, Paul Shannon (Morgan Freeman), attempts to help them as best he can…but he may not have their best intentions at heart. When one domino falls, it may cause a…Chain Reaction!
