On a cold November night, a fatal chain reaction in the European power grid plunges the continent into darkness – the world as we know it has changed forever. While the authorities fight to control the impact of the blackout, one man in Italy, former hacker Pierre Manzano, realizes that a malicious code he wrote nearly 20 years ago during the 2001 G8 riots is to blame.
 
In Germany, Frauke Michelsen suddenly finds herself heading the country’s crisis response team, battling with failed communication systems, the threat of food shortages and the collapse of the health system. But when her eight-year-old twin daughters go missing, she is torn between managing the spiralling incidents and her own personal challenges. With every connection severed a race against time begins, but as disaster looms, a beacon of hope remains – if people can come together and help one another, maybe the worst can be overcome.
 
An ambitious new international thriller produced by W&B Television for Joyn and SAT.1 (Germany) and distributed by Red Arrow Studios International.
