Synopsis

A devastating earthquake reduces Seoul to rubble, with the exception of only one single skyscraper, which presides over the center of the city. Before long, the adverse living conditions there lure the survivors into the building, only to discover that its residents have barricaded themselves inside, and have no intention of letting them in. A spectacular thriller halfway between a disaster movie and a dystopian film.
