New Dawn

The year is 2058. The world's powers have been stabilised, the citizens of the newly formed super-states are safe, living in peace. But safety is a privilege of the fortunate few. For those, born on the wrong side of The Wall surrounding the United States of Europe, peace must be paid for; and the price is higher than ever before.

New Dawn is a protest against the rise of racism, the political exploitation of ignorance fueled by fear, and the glorification of war; wrapped in an action packed, constantly accelerating chase.

Told from different perspectives, the story shows all sides of an unfolding disaster. There are no pretenses or clichés; the characters confront each other and their own prejudices, while struggling to accept a reality that is widely different than their deepest rooted beliefs.

The story is set in a dystopian near future, which symbolises the ills of contemporary society. From the rise of extreme right-wing populism, through the inaptitude of a liberalism that is not willing to take action or even responsibility, to the oft-unspoken prejudices found in all aspects of everyday life, the story’s world and characters are based on our present time.
