Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
This 1989 film is set several years in the future, in 1995. In the story, Jens Lohkamp (Ian Morse), a computer whiz, is trying to use his computer on an old photograph of a woman's long-lost father to see what he would look like in the present and, with the updated image, help her find him. While he is working on it, he realizes it is a picture of the man he saw kidnapping his sister many years before. The missing man becomes aware that his identity is known, and he attempts to deal with the situation. However, this particular computer whiz has access to more than just the current appearance of the killer.
