EDEN – The Dying Begins

Fish are dying, fields are crumbling, and the food chain collapses – yet humanity remains blind. A fast-paced apocalyptic thriller where everything is at stake.

Piero Manzano is back! The much-loved IT-expert from Blackout returns, once again challenged to prevent a global disaster in this new science thriller of bestselling author Marc Elsberg. Will he succeed in saving both himself and the world?

Early summer: Tourists are shocked, when a giant squid, usually living deep down in the ocean, attacks a peaceful whale shark right in front of them in the Caribbean Sea. Meanwhile, swarms of dead fish are found in the Bay of Trieste. And in the Amazon region, the ground is cracking, drying out. Consequences of the global species extinc- tion, hardly ever mentioned in the news. But Piero Manzano’s brand-new AI pro- gram issues an unmistakeable warning and predicts a global super crisis that could plunge the world into chaos within weeks.

Piero’s nephew Linus Strand is a successful influencer. Environmental issues and politics have no place in his lifestyle content until he meets young marine biologist Sarah Keller. Impressed by her research and determination, he realizes that his reach as an influencer could make a difference. Together with Piero Manzano, they try to alert the public and spread the warnings, only to find themselves in the line of fire. Backed by powerful corporate interests, their opponents do everything they can to silence them, while a storm is literally brewing on the horizon…

EDEN unfolds with the force of an international thriller, combining science, emotion, and action in a breathless narrative – visually and dramatically perfect for the screen.
