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.

When the western world is about to collapse because of fear, inequality, misogyny, xenophobia, narcissism and other disruptive forces, a secret Surinam based society comes to action. The apathy of the future western generations can only be nullified by letting the blood of the petty kids boil again. Therefore the cult sends their prodigy child Tjon Rockon, a former graffiti artist, to the Netherlands to rescue civilization through the method of self cancelling and performative rituals.
