Plot: Childress, head of a secret government agency, tries to kill one of his agents, Peter Sandza. Childress is wanting to get hold of Peter's son
Robin who has incredible psychic powers. But Peter survives and comes after Childress, determined to get Robin back. At the same time
schoolgirl Gillian Bellaver has started to develop similar psychic powers and is placed in The Paragon Institute, a psychic research
centre that is really controlled by Childress. Peter breaks her out in order to enlist her help finding Robin. Meanwhile however Robin’s powers
have led to growing megalomania upon his part and he soon goes dangerously beyond the ability of Childress’s people to keep control of him.
To me, sounds like someone's imagination caught up with my movie knowledge. But you never know...
