The science whiz has a knack for mind films involving time travel, ultimate love, and saving John Lennon. It's real life that stifles her.\u003cbr\u003eHer brilliant but choleric father bangs doors and turns home into a theatre of conflict. At school, they are a patriot squad of young heroes with titles, protocols and codes of conduct. \u003ci\u003eThis isn't me\u003c\/i\u003e, Lili keeps protesting.\u003cbr\u003eHer only hope is to get into university and study astrophysics.
