A magnitude 9.0 earthquake strikes off the coast of British Columbia, sending a tsunami toward shore at roughly the speed of a commercial jet. The film builds this scenario as a simulation, then works through the practical aftermath: streets without power, grocery stores closed, city water contaminated, and the ordinary systems people rely on suddenly gone. It walks through what a household needs to have on hand and what skills matter when help is not coming quickly, from treating a serious bleeding injury in the field to setting up shelter, sourcing clean water, and rationing food. The focus stays on individual and family readiness rather than government response, with the disaster scenario used as a structuring device to test each item on a preparedness checklist against a specific, physical consequence. It is framed as a hypothetical, but one built from real seismic risk on the BC coast rather than pure speculation.
