Plot Synopsis

SANCTUARY follows the adventures of the beautiful, enigmatic and always surprising Dr. Helen Magnus, a brilliant scientist who holds the secrets of a clandestine population -- a group of strange and sometimes terrifying beings that hide among humans. Along with her new recruit, forensic psychiatrist Dr. Will Zimmerman, her quirky tech wiz Henry and her fearless daughter Ashley, Magnus seeks to protect these threatened phenomena as well as unlock the mysteries behind their existence. With the arrival of the Hollow Earth refugees -- and the season four premiere -- the balance between Abnormals and humans is severely upset. In order to keep the peace, Magnus and team must throw out the rulebook. But forging their own way means they're not just dodging dangerous Abnormals anymore, now they've got world governments and new villains nipping at their heels. SANCTUARY was the first series to shoot extensively on green screen, using virtual sets and extraordinary visual effects.
