POLAM: The Birth of Captain Coder

Cornelius is a brilliant young programmer, ahead of his time in the quiet fishing town of Newtown, Bonavista Bay, Newfoundland in 1985. By day, he's just a kid navigating friendships, heartbreak, and his love for technology. But by night, he's experimenting with groundbreaking coding techniques on his trusty 300-baud modem. A genius tinkering with data compression, Cornelius inadvertently stumbles upon something extraordinary during a late-night coding session—a malfunction that alters him forever.

Dealing with small town drama and a sudden urge to escape, he hatches a plan to save both his girlfriend, Elizabeth Spencer and himself.

When a surge of energy from his new super modem changes his very DNA, Cornelius gains an unbelievable power: the ability to program abilities into his own body. Invisibility, lock-picking, enhanced speed—his skills are now only limited by his imagination and code

With the help of his closest friends and his now fiancé, Elizabeth, and a mind sharpened by his obsession with tech, Cornelius must decide what kind of person he’s destined to be. Will he rise to the challenge, or will the dangers of his newfound abilities consume him?

POLAM: The Birth of Captain Coder is a thrilling dive into the intersection of technology and superhuman potential, set in the 1980s where the line between innovation and disaster is just one keystroke away.
