“If we are
going to survive we need a different kind of soldier, one that doesn’t think
the way we think or fear the way we fear,” states Harrison Ford's character in Ender’s Game. Ford plays Colonel Graff who trains the best young minds to save the planet following a devastating attack
from a hostile alien race called the Formics.
Set 50 years in the near future, the Ender’s Game International Military Fleet builds a Battle School, a cross
between a boarding school, boot camp and a prison for child prodigies. The huge space station that orbits the planet
trains children to prepare against the next attack and save the
planet.
The film follows one special student, Ender who is
enrolled in the Battle School. Grouped
into 'armies' battling against each other in constant competition, the kids
endure physical and mental abuse. A
remarkable 12-year-old, Ender has a vast ability to anticipate his opponents
every move. These skills along with his compassion and capacity for violence
are what make Ender stand out as Colonel Graff’s favorite.
