However, in private meetings, it is seen that their High Priestess (Charlotte Rampling) only desires power and uses invented miracles to court converts. The Noelites have become a major new salvationist religion, which vast numbers of people cling to as the world spirals out of control. Once in Harlem, a news broadcast about the bombing of the Kyrgyzstan convent causes the group to realize there is more going on than they know. These perils cause Finn to betray the group, so Toorop shoots him dead. Toorop manages to destroy all the drones, but also gets wounded. The doctor told her to go to New York City and arranged for Toorop to escort them.Īfter arriving in Alaska with help from Toorop's associate Finn (Strong), the protagonists are attacked by weaponized drones. This occurred after a Noelite doctor administered a pill. Three months before leaving with Toorop, she began acting differently. Sister Rebeka tells Toorop that Aurora could speak nineteen different languages by the age of two, and always seems to know things she has never learned. Aurora, infuriated by the loss of life, operates the 30-year-old submarine without training. To avoid satellite detection, the Captain of the submarine orders his crew to dive and he shoots some of the refugees still trying to get on board.

Later, they board a submarine that carries refugees to Canada. The protagonists must also evade an unknown group of mercenaries claiming to have been sent by Aurora's supposedly dead father. On one such occasion, Aurora, seemingly for no reason, panics and runs from a crowded train station, just before it explodes in a terrorist attack. The stress of humanity's situation causes Aurora to act out in strange ways and display clairvoyance abilities.

Unlike in the technologically advanced U.S., war and terrorist activity have transformed Russia's cities into dangerous, overpopulated slums. Toorop, the girl, and her guardian Sister Rebeka (Yeoh), travel from the Noelite Convent in Kyrgyzstan to reach New York via Russia. Gorsky gives Toorop a variety of weapons and a subdermally implanted UN passport. In a dystopian 2027, Russian mobster Gorsky (Depardieu) hires the mercenary Toorop (Diesel) to bring a young woman known only as Aurora (Thierry) from Europe to New York City.
