A mysterious force field appears around the African continent, cutting Europe off from the natural resources and cheap labor it needs to remain prosperous. Meanwhile, the ongoing process of extreme climate change plunges Europe into a new ice age. This Afrofuturist musical follows five individual stories of African descendants as they struggle to survive in a bleak future Europe. They sing to Africa, sing to each other, and sing to themselves in ways that create solidarity and community in an alienating society.

A fragmented portrait of a moment, a person, and a place, seen through the subjective memories of a young Black girl, Imani, and a rookie police officer, David, who both have wildly different recollections of the same fateful moment in a corner store that will leave their lives altered forever.
