The world has been ravaged by nuclear war, leaving the planet frozen and deadly radiation kills anyone or anything that ventures outside of a dome. The last remnants of humanity have gathered together inside this isolated vault as their refuge decays around them, awaiting rescue from a mysterious craft known only as The Ark.
