Synopsis

HENRIK is a brilliant but narcissistic young physician. At university he meets another natural talent, JULIA. Together they develop a theory on renewable energy which leads to a fusion reactor that can endlessly produce clean energy. Julia falls in love with Henrik and a lifelong relationship begins between them. Decades of mental torment finally drive Julia to commit suicide.

In 2060 the post climate change 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 at the moment of conception. Henrik is chosen for a mission to publish the blueprint of the fusion reactor to the whole world and thus prevent climate change from ever happening. But something goes wrong: Henrik is born in the wrong body and has to learn humility while living his new life as a slow-witted blue-collar worker.

After Us, The Flood is a science fiction drama about identity and the reasons why humans are unable to stop climate change.
