Self-Sacrifice to Save the Planet. The year is 2065. Following a freak encounter with a mysterious woman, Brian, a bored and frustrated dentist in the midst of a personal crisis, finds himself in the position to expose a conspiracy to control world population. Fifty-five years earlier, the manipulators — a mysterious group with aims to influence the course of the world — set in motion an irreversible chain of events by creating genetically engineered prophets with God-like powers who healed the sick and preached self-sacrifice as the ultimate good, redefining humanity’s course. Now, betrayed by their ruthless creators, the prophets are being hunted. Standing in the way of their annihilation and a resulting cover-up are Brian and his unlikely allies — a radiologist and a woman with a dangerous secret — who must all overcome their personal baggage to give the world its only chance to finally learn the truth.
