[edit] Introduction

A team of scientists plan to use an incredibly strong magnetic field to open a door to another dimension.

[edit] Opening narration

"The mind of man has always longed to know what lies beyond the world we live in. Explorers have ventured into the deeps and the heights. Of these explorers some are scientists, some are mystics. Each is driven by a different purpose. The one thing they share in common is a wish to cross the Borderlands that lie beyond the Outer Limits."

[edit] Plot synopsis

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Forthcoming.

[edit] Closing narration

"There are worlds beyond and worlds within which the explorer must explore, but there here is one power which seems to transcend space and time, life and death. It is a deeply human power which holds us safe and together when all other forces combine to tear us apart -- we call it the power of love."
