Chain Reaction - 1996

Plot: Two researchers in a green alternative energy project are put on the run when they are framed for murder and treason.

Story: Eddie Kasalivich, an undergraduate at the University of Chicago, works as a technician for a scientific team that discovers an alternative, low-cost, pollution-free fuel source. When one of the chief scientists is murdered and the invention stolen, Eddie and physicist Lily Sinclair are framed for it and have to flee for their lives, with the FBI, CIA and other involved parties in close pursuit. Paul Shannon, Eddies mentor, is the director of a scientific company which - unknown to Eddie - has commercial interests in the invention. Eddie and Lily set out to find the stolen invention and hopefully clear themselves of the false charges.

Did you know: There is a sequence in the movie that is supposed to take place in the U.S. Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. The exterior of the D.C. landmark is shown, but the Wisconsin State Capitol, located in Madison, Wisconsin, was used for the interior shots. Two scenes were filmed there: one in the first floor of the Wisconsin Capitol rotunda, and one in the building's Supreme Court chamber.
