2049

"This world is what remains from yesterday. And yesterday is dead."
The Third World War has left the Earth devastated by nuclear weapons. The New Empire, the futuristic underground city, thrives. The Carbon People operate the life machines, keeping the Core - an artificial atmosphere - functioning continuously. The Order Police and the agents of the Federation control the citizens, while outside the New Empire, the Western Suburbs await an opportunity for rebellion.

Amidst the fragile balances of the new world, the vision of Babylon emerges, a planet in space that meets all the conditions for life. Acquiring a ticket to the promised land is the purpose of life, but the price is quite high.

Percival Wells, an agent of the Federation, is called to apprehend the Instigator, an anonymous Messiah who is believed to divide the citizens on whether Babylon is real. With a fateful woman by his side - unsure if she is an ally or an enemy - the search will immerse him in dark paths of corruption and loss, where truth alternates with lies. The dilemma between illusion and reality has never been closer.
