In dystopian future governed by a biotechnology corporation, a young woman’s investigation into her father’s sudden disappearance leads her to believe he is a test-subject in a secret government location called “The Factory”. When she finds herself with a group of prisoners on a vehicle heading towards an unknown location, she realizes she is on her way to The Factory and must find her father and escape before they are changed forever.

Who is the girl? What importance is she? Why would they take her father? I believe if you bare it down. We don't need to know if it's in the future or not. Just the significance of why.

Why not have her get arrested for her guerilla activity and punished with the very torture and genetic modification she has been fighting to sabotage?

She could be the ultimate human guinea pig in the trial program to prove it's good enough to go into production with the entire prison population of rebels and dissidents. If they can crack and transform her, the person whom psychological profiling has determined is an uber-rebel, the most defiant and strong-willed of the rebel typology, they can crack and subdue anyone.
