60 years after the nuclear apocalypse only a small group of people have managed to survive. One of the few survivors is Niko, a 10-year-old child and his grandfather, Lexi. Niko was born in the devastated industrial area and never left from there. Living in an Area where they can find food and shelter, has made them see it as a heavenly place for which they have to fight with the opponents in maintaining the control over their territory. Niko through the toxic influence of Lexi is fed with a sense of hatred for their opponents who live on the other side of the rails. In this clash a strong conflict take place with a Feral Child of the other side endangering each other’s life. The clash between the two parties becomes fierce to the point of existence, which makes children obey the will of the adults to whom this status quo fits. Meanwhile, the conflict between the adults on both sides escalates into a deadly clash, making Niko realize that Lexi is not really the man he thought was all over the years. Niko seeks out his truth which is a difficult journey between the intrigues, hermeticism o and hostility of Lexi and on the other hand questioning what his future might be. Arrival of Xeni, with his family for a few days in the Industrial Area, makes Niko begin to realize that the borders built by Lexi and Fiqo have turned him into a prisoner in the area. Leaving the area would have fatal consequences for the children.
