Synopsis

A mother and son. America is underwater. Three hundred miles between them.

When catastrophic flooding reshapes the eastern seaboard overnight, Juliet finds herself stranded in the Florida Panhandle with no way north and no way to reach Billy, her teenage son outside Boston. Infrastructure is failing. Communication is unreliable. And the country between them is no longer the one either of them knew.

Juliet pushes north through a drowned landscape, mile by difficult mile. Billy navigates suburban Boston's unraveling alone, where technology is equal parts lifeline and liability. What holds them both forward is the same thing: the certainty that the other is out there, moving.
