Synopsis:
When computer programmer Angela Bennett boots up some new software, she gets more than she expected -- she gets access to restricted government files. Very soon after, the colleague who had sent her the new program dies in a plane crash. The panicked Angela nevertheless decides to continue as planned and go on vacation to Mexico, where she meets a handsome computer hacker. But her "romantic conquest" cares only about her disc with the top-secret information. By the time Angela discovers his duplicity, and realizes she's in danger, it's too late: her visa is gone, her name and address and credit cards are wiped off the computer, and she's wanted for a number of violent crimes. In fact, as far as the net goes, she doesn't exist at all. Now, Angela must assume another person's name and past if she's ever going to get home and prove her true identity.

Reviews:
"...Bullock delivers a compelling and subtle performance..." - 01/01/1996 Premiere, pp.110-1


"...With admirable techno-savvy, the film upgrades the paranoia-propelled thriller and downloads it into the '90s..." - 07/28/1995 USA Today, p.5D


"...You can imagine Hitchcock having paranoid fun with this idea....[Bullock's] concentration is so compelling..." -- Rating: B - 08/11/1995 Entertainment Weekly, pp.40-1


"...The suspense is neatly achieved....Bullock again provides highly accessible, viewer-friendly entry to a story..." - 07/24/1995 Variety


"...[Bullock is] very low-key. She's so natural she seems to be remembering a scene rather than playing it. She has a warm smile. She never overacts..." - 07/28/1995 Chicago Sun-Times, p.37
