An epic, existentially weighty science fiction drama about humanity's collective struggle for survival across generations, grounded in family bonds amid planetary catastrophe.
When the Sun begins to expand in such a way that it will inevitably engulf and destroy the Earth in a hundred years, united mankind finds a way to avoid extinction by propelling the planet out of the Solar System using gigantic engines, moving it to a new home located four light years away, an epic journey that will last thousands of years.
