Action survival thriller “Greenland” kept viewers on the edge of their seats in 2020. The Garrity family’s story continues with “Greenland: Migration,” but hopefully with the transition from desperate flight to the battle of rebuilding civilization. Gerard Butler, Morena Baccarin, and Roger Dale Floyd return, fighting to survive a world devastated by a cometary impact disaster.
A Journey Beyond Survival
“Greenland” plunged audiences into chaos when comet fragments loomed over Earth’s devastation. John Garrity (Gerard Butler), estranged wife Allison (Morena Baccarin), and son Nathan (Roger Dale Floyd) embarked on a treacherous journey to a secure bunker in Greenland, their only hope of survival. “Greenland: Migration” picks up from where the last film left off, exploring the devastation that ensued and the massive undertaking of starting anew in the devastation.
The essence of the sequel is the Garritys’ long trek from their refuge in Greenland to the desolate European landscape. It is not a physiological path but a change in the human psyche as well. The movie addresses the issues of surviving after a catastrophe, the question of rebuilding society, how to deal with the scarcity of resources, and how to avoid psychological trauma due to the catastrophe.
Picture a world in which the last remnants of civilization are on the brink of falling apart. The buildings are reduced to rubble, the resources are running low, and the psychic wounds of the apocalypse are a bitter truth. The film will explore how civilizations are rebuilt, the issues of leadership, and the moral dilemmas of surviving in a world stripped bare to its essentials.
The Familiar Faces and Expanding Horizons
Gerard Butler reprises the single-minded dad John Garrity, fueled by an unrelenting devotion to his family. Morena Baccarin reprises the no-nonsense and competent mother Allison. Roger Dale Floyd, now weathered, reprises Nathan, and brings bittersweet understanding to a generation who were forced to mature under the specter of apocalypse.
Even though the Garritys are the focus of the entire story, “Greenland: Migration” will introduce new characters that also symbolize diversity in human aspects in this world following the conclusion. They will each have their own unique histories, issues, and contributions, which will carry on the theme of society reconstruction in the film.
The scope of the film geographically will be much greater, extending beyond the confines of Greenland to the ruins of European territories. The broadening of scope will give a broader view of the impact of the comet throughout the globe, showcasing the different concerns of different communities.
