Welcome to the Republic of Arna in 2036, where armed groups fight for power and water, the country is ruled by a failing Coalition government, and the upcoming elections threaten civil war. Josi lives in this world, unable to cope with the recent death of his sister. This event decided his life - Josi decides to join the Peace Front, a new, radical group declaring a violent crackdown on lawlessness and a fair distribution of water. However, he does not expect that he will quickly become entangled in a network of secret connections of political conflict, and that the current government, a religious-terrorist organization called the Cult and the Vesna Cartel will soon reach out for him. The dystopian vision in "Scorched Earth" is a timely commentary on contemporary problems, such as the erosion of democratic political systems or the inexorably approaching climate catastrophe. How will we behave in the face of a lack of raw materials necessary for life? Will weakened state bodies be able to face real challenges?
