In a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by the Third World War, a catastrophic conflict over water resources has led to the extinction of life on Earth. Against this backdrop, Asha, a curator at the Natural History Museum in a community in Africa, discovers a sample of soil that surprisingly contains non-radioactive earth. When she plants a seed, it begins to sprout, sparking a glimmer of hope. Despite the Community Council's initial rejection of her plan to revive life on the planet, Asha decides to take matters into her own hands, risking everything to escape to the treacherous desert and plant her tiny tree in a desperate bid to bring new life to a dying world.
