In a world where the sun seems to have a personal grudge against humanity, a small town is caught in a wave of extreme heat that turns everyday life into genuine chaos. The story follows a variety of characters, from a local police officer trying to maintain order to a young mother struggling to protect her family while dealing with water shortages and the effects of the heat in her community.
As the days go by and temperatures reach unbearable levels, the tension among the residents begins to rise. Desperation and overwhelm unleash a series of conflicts, revealing the true facets of each individual. Friends become enemies, and alliances fracture. Amidst the horror, there are flashes of humanity: the story of an elderly man reminiscing about cooler times, or a group of young people trying to make the most of the little time they have together, even as the weather threatens to pull them apart.
As the heatwave intensifies, the characters' decisions will lead to an unexpected outcome, testing each person's resilience and morality. In this stifling environment, the struggle is not just against the heat, but also against personal limitations and fears. The result is a compelling reflection on survival, community, and what it truly means to be alive when the world is engulfed in oppressive heat.
