After Us, The Flood
In 2064 the post climate changed world is on the verge of destruction. The UN has developed a form of time travel: a person’s memories and their personality along with them can be transmitted to the past, to the person themselves in the moment of birth. Henrik, a brilliant but narcissistic physicist, has been chosen for a mission to publish the blueprint of the fusion reactor – based on his invention – to the entire world and thus prevent climate change from ever happening. But something goes wrong: Henrik is born in the wrong body and must learn humility while living his new life. AFTER US, THE FLOOD is a science fiction drama about relationships, identity, greed and the reasons why humans are unable to stop climate change.
In a world on the brink of ecological collapse, sci-fi drama AFTER US, THE FLOOD emerges not alone as an entertaining film, but also as a conversation starter on our collective responsibility towards the planet. The film is directed by internationally acclaimed Arto Halonen, whose first feature film “Princess” (2010), was one of the highest grossing Finnish films in the decade it was released. His latest film, “The Guardian Angel” (2018) was sold in 70 countries. AFTER US, THE FLOOD serves as a light of hope, urging audiences to rethink their relationship with nature and inspiring transformative change.
