Plot
In a cruel dystopian world, those between 13 and 18 years of age either function as a cog in the machine of a brainwashed society, or they will be "unwound." That is, your body will be taken apart, piece by piece, and given to those the government determines to be more suitable. Connor, Risa, and Lev are three young people raging against the machine. Their desire for freedom and self-determination is greater than their fear of unwinding.
