Countries disappear, love remains. In Denmark, in a not-too-distant future, the rising water levels can no longer be ignored and the country needs to be evacuated. As people disperse in all directions, they must bid farewell to what they love, what they know, and who they are. Slowly but steadily, everything changes. All property becomes worthless, all fortunes shift, and luck favours only a few. Those who can afford it travel to affluent countries while the less well-off depend on government-funded relocation to more challenging destinations. Families, friends, and loved ones are separated. Some will be overcome by hatred and division, while others will nurture love and foster new beginnings. When news of the evacuation breaks, the course of the lives of Laura, a high-schooler on the cusp of graduation, and her family are changed forever, and Laura faces the impossible dilemma of choosing from among the three people she loves most.
