Agent Snow (Guy Pearce) is caught while trying to transport a mysterious briefcase and is arrested for murder and espionage. He faces a long prison sentence but is given a second chance when the president's daughter, Emilie (Maggie Grace), finds herself trapped on a space station filled with dangerous escaped prisoners. If Snow can rescue her, he can buy his freedom. Fortunately, the secret of the lost briefcase is also on the station, and Snow hopes to find it while he's there and clear his name. But Snow discovers that Emilie isn't so easy to rescue; she refuses to leave without taking the rest of the hostages with her.
