Sci-fi series about a group of atypical young-adults finding their way in the world, while navigating the (often ironic) superhuman abilities they begin to develop and investigating the cause, before the world falls into chaos.

SYNOPSIS:

Compound 1875 was developed in 2019, in the laboratories of Davenport-Pharma. Its creator, a chemical biologist named Dr Janine Davenport, oversaw a team tasked with prospecting for chemicals that could bind to the PPAR-beta receptor as a possible treatment for Autism.

In 2021 the project was shut down.

The attendees of the Young Person’s centre help each other stay calm and clear minded, working through numerous mental health issues, to keep their new abilities controlled. Or risk being taken by the government, who are attempting to contain the situation. As they investigate their own powers and why they have them, they realise people outside of the YPC have abilities too but are less able to control them. The PNDs have decisions to make in a world thrown into chaos, exploring themes of diversity, morality and belonging.
