Twenty-five years after environmental collapse has left the Earth uninhabitable, Mother, Father and Son are confined to their palatial bunker, where they struggle to maintain hope and a sense of normalcy by clinging to the rituals of daily life – until the arrival of a stranger, Girl, turns their happy routine upside down. Son, a naïve twenty-something who has never seen the outside world, is fascinated by the newcomer, and suddenly the delicate bonds of blind optimism that have held this wealthy clan together begin to fray. As tensions rise, their seemingly idyllic existence begins to unravel, with long-suppressed feelings of regret and resentment threatening to destroy the family’s delicate balance. But their reckoning with difficult truths also points to a different path forward, one based on acceptance, love and the ability to change.
