When Hector discovers his estranged father has channelled the family fortune into a bizarre doomsday cult who await the imminent destruction of the Earth, he is wracked by feelings of betrayal and doubt. Things change, however, the night an asteroid plummets from space and destroys the planet, leaving Hector and a handful of survivors struggling for survival on a splinter of the Earth. Trapped amongst the surviving cultists, Hector must confront his own fears and doubts to help rebuild both the human race and his relationship with his father.
