PLOT:
Copenhagen, Denmark, 1926. Einar Wegener and his wife Gerda are a happily married couple. Both are artists, Einar preferring landscapes and she portraits. One day Einar poses for a portrait of Gerda's while wearing a dress. This is initially done as a lark, as is the later attendance at a party dressed as a woman. However, Einar soon discovers that she is in fact a woman and over time prefers being Lili. At first, she and Gerda try to have her situation "cured" but this leads nowhere (other than too many doctors trying to have Lili locked up as a pervert and/or lunatic). Her voyage of self-discovery will ultimately lead to her undergoing the first ever sex-change operation.

PLOT:
Since WWII, federal governments have been in a race against each other to harness the paranormal powers in humans; their experimentation using high powered drugs to turn them into soldiers for their own nefarious purposes. A secret faction of the US government known as Division hunts down and captures these paranormals, thinking it better to kill them than let them go. Their agents are all paranormals. In Hong Kong, Nick Gant, a second generation telekinetic, who are called "Movers" by Division, has not trained his powers and wants to run from his past. Ten years ago, when Nick was a young teen Nick's telekinetic father was killed by Agent Henry Carver of Division, who can insert false thoughts into others (coined "Pushers") trying to elude the organization. Before dying, Nick's father told Nick to help a young woman who would one day approach him, implying that in helping her, he would help save society. That day has come. Thirteen-year-old Cassie Holmes, who can see into the future (coined "Watchers") - although that future may potentially be altered upon action - has arrived. Division has discovered Nick's location after searching for him these past ten years, believing he knows the whereabouts of a woman they are looking for who has stolen a case from them. Cassie's mother, arguably the most talented Watcher Division has known, was long abducted by Division. Cassie states that the case may be able to be used to get her mother back and may be used to bring down Division for good. Their task is not as easy as they think, when they discover that the person who stole the case is closer to Nick than he realizes. Their task is further complicated by a Chinese faction who are also after the case and who have their own paranormals with a Watcher more adept than Cassie, and thus who knows in advance what Nick and Cassie are up to.
