Em uma paisagem destruída e hostil, em um futuro ao qual poucos tiveram o azar de sobreviver, uma comunidade resiste, confinada em um gigantesco silo subterrâneo. Lá dentro, mulheres e homens vivem enclausurados, sob regulamentos estritos, cercados por segredos e mentiras. Para continuar ali, eles precisam seguir as regras, mas há quem se recuse a fazer isso.

Juliette é uma dessas pessoas. E talvez seja a última.
