These characters, together with their younger versions and some interesting surprise characters, try to discover why these innocent people are being hunted by the United States government's mysterious Division.

These characters and their unique abilities are the offspring or the actual test subjects from the dark experiments the Nazi's performed. After the war, other governments seemingly took over and went beyond the simple Nazi goal of creating an ultimate soldier.

The story line is deep, but the probability of a sequel spread this film to its limit. As with most films, those that enjoy the genre will find plenty to enjoy. Those that don't get into it, may not.
