In a retirement home on the fringe of Miami after decades of rising seas, the remaining residents struggle with the prospect of being relocated as
a hurricane approaches. The story follows an environmental scientist, an engineer, a former ballerina and her husband/manager, a couple obsessed
by a comparison to the holocaust, a widow warning about the end of times, the owner of the home distraught by the consequences of his inescapable
loss, and the nurse who looks to a future with a sense of cautious optimism. All are forced to leave and seek new homes away from the excruciating
heat and invading seas. As they move north, they encounter distrust, hardships and masses of refugees competing for the last habitable places on
Earth. They also confront an administration unable to find a positive path to the new world resulting in a developing police state with government
troops trying to control, often harshly, the movement of the refugees. The characters are all transformed by their experience as some find love, some
develop new bonds while others remain resigned to their fate. But all are changed through this voyage of self-discovery as seen from the perspective
of an older generation that struggles to process this climate changed world.
