An ultimately glorious opening in 2012, Revolution, tells us a story about post-apocalyptic future where the blood and soul of our technically advanced world has totally dissappeared "“ the Electricity. Imagine, that in one disastrous moment some unknown phenomena will switch off all the electricity on the planet. Forever. Imagine the world without computers, batteries, machinery, lamps, automobiles, airplanes, ships and train. It's needless to say that would be the world without a bank system, a medical system, a policy and, as the result without the power at all. In Revolution, these tiny forces allowing the electrons to run inside the devices wires are all run out in one moment all over the Earth and nobody knows why and what to do in order to restore it. The Revolution action takes place after fifteen years since the "blackout" "“ the humanity is not even looks similar to what we now mean by this word. There are no United States of America, but there are lots of small republics, counties and anarchies "“ all ruled by cruel leaders.
