New Zealand sci-fi directed by Geoff Murphy. Adapted from the novel by Craig Harrison, the film follows scientist Zac Hobson (Bruno Lawrence) as he awakes one morning to discover he is alone in the world and that he is to blame - as it was his global energy project that devastated the planet. Overcome with guilt, Zac starts to act out his fantasies in his own exclusive kingdom, but he soon realises the emptiness and loneliness of his nightmare situation and embarks on a frantic search for other survivors. He stumbles across two other desperate characters and together they struggle to survive. However, the dangerous energy forces of this unstable universe will surely kill them unless they can reverse the catastrophe caused by man's interference with nature.
