“The more that I try to control it, the more damage that I do…” Based on the book series by Alexandra Bracken, The Darkest Minds is a science fiction thriller starring Amandla Stenberg (‘Everything, Everything,’ ‘The Hunger Games’) as a young girl with telekinetic powers who ignites a revolution.
When teens mysteriously develop powerful new abilities, they are declared a threat by the government and detained. Sixteen-year-old Ruby, one of the most powerful young people anyone has encountered, escapes her camp and joins a group of runaway teens seeking safe haven. Soon this newfound family realizes that, in a world in which the adults in power have betrayed them, running is not enough and they must wage a resistance, using their collective power to take back control of their future.
