SNOWPIERCER

The good news: we're done with climate change. The bad news: the scientific experiment to stop global warming led to the exact opposite result. Instead of rising temperatures, the Earth is now in the middle of a new ice age. Most humans died as a result of this climate catastrophe. The few survivors have banded together in a train that is speeding across the frosty landscape. The discussions among the passengers are that much more heated. The repressed lower class, huddled together at the end of the train, won't tolerate an unequal society any longer. A new revolution gathers steam as the insurrectionists fight their way from train car to train car, from shabby quarters to schools and salons, and then to the luxury compartments. The goal is to reach the engine room. That's not only where the legendary equipment is that powers the train, but also its inventor — who has a few more surprises in store.
