Description was written before the event

Ridley Scott tells the story of Higa, a young pilot who, together with military survivalist Bangley, has built an isolated homestead in a brutal post-apocalyptic world. A mysterious radio signal then compels him to venture into the unknown - seeking hope in whose existence he still believes.

An epic thriller where survival is instinct, but humanity is a choice.
