An exciting science fiction feature length telemovie filmed in Australia and Poland that combines fantasy, action and drama for ages 8–14. A television cult classic about a 13-year-old girl from the year 3000 thrown back to our primitive modern day.
Alana, a 13-year-old girl from a future Utopia, is thrown back to our 'strange and primitive' modern day world when a time travel experiment goes wrong. Silverthorn, a fugitive warlord thrown back in time with Alana, steals the time capsule, which is Alana's only hope of returning home. With the help of only her personal wrist computer P.J. and her new friends Jenny and Petey, Alana must battle Silverthorn for control of the capsule, or be stranded forever – a thousand years from home. The Girl from Tomorrow telemovie is an excellent resource for studying future utopias and the science fiction genre with many websites devoted to it.
The film is an excellent resource for Media Studies, English, Science, Technology, and Social Education. The educational resources focus on the topics of utopias, world issues, ethics, values, justice and the sci-fi genre.
