In the near future, a ragtag band of teens struggles for survival in the face of a climate induced catastrophe.

But that all changes when they're forced to flee their makeshift home. On the road, they'll encounter everything from unfinished coloring books and failing paradises to a frozen-in-time former pre-kindergarten drama class, deadly bikers determined to turn the chaos into their own new world order...and a mysterious people that even the bikers won't cross. Will the teen refugees follow Deme, their leader, and chase after the rumored polar bears that she believes are the key to their long-term survival, or will the little patchwork family fall apart?
