What happens in The Great Flood?

When a massive tsunami threatens to wipe out the city of Seoul, citizens have nowhere to run: This natural disaster is a worldwide extinction event. However, An-na (Kim), a researcher and single mother, is only thinking of her young son, Za-in (Kwon). As they brave the chaos, An-na realizes quickly there’s just one place to go as water floods in through the windows of her third-story apartment: up. 

An-na fights past panicked neighbors, fends off looters, and more — only to be separated from her son. When she’s rescued by the curt and mysterious Hee-jo (Park), the two set off to find her son. But An-na soon realizes Hee-jo’s motives for offering help may not be as altruistic as they seem — and that the fates of all three of them may rest in her hands.
