Collision
Synopsis
On November 9, 2067, Ben Ferry, a 46-year-old computer scientist and video game fan, is traveling by plane across the United States for business. Suddenly, three masked and well-trained individuals take control of the plane and divert it to another destination. Through the bravery and courage of the passengers, the flight crew manages to regain control of the plane and makes an emergency landing in a forest. After the passengers were questioned, two of the assailants lost their lives. The last one confessed being a mercenary paid by a powerful organization to hijack the plane to important buildings. He specifies that 41 planes, 12 trains and 8 ships are part of the project and must also be diverted to strategic locations. The USA, under attack, must not delay in retaliating, but on whom?
Note of intent
These events occur at a time when there is a thinly veiled cold war between several major world powers. The USA is doing everything to keep its place as number 1 in the world ahead of China. This gives them an advantage over the IMF, its resources, its geographical position and its secrets. The US has a preferential position in exploitation issues, especially in the Middle East oil. China, more powerful than the USA at that time, is putting everything in place to assert its position as number 1 and to take all the advantages. As for the Middle East, it is trying to get rid of its contracts with the USA to work with China and Russia. Russia, an associate of China, wants to assert its position in order to benefit from this preferential status.
​
These attacks are interpreted by the US as coming from the Middle East and supported by China and Russia. The targets are therefore all designated. Who really benefits from the attacks on the United States, and who will benefit from the US response? This will be the issue that will keep viewers guessing and excited.
​
Ben Ferry unwittingly finds himself at the center of a problem that is bigger than himself: a problem of states. Several years later, after having seen his wife and daughter murdered, he becomes the only person on earth able to reveal to the general public the true purpose of the November 9th catastrophes. A truth so dark and obscure that the viewer will be crossed by strong emotions at the same time.
​
Ben Ferry will be rather rounded, reserved, and anxious at the beginning of the series. But as the episodes progress, he will become a true survivalist, confident and determined to bring down those responsible. The first episode will end with the announcement to the survivors of the other 60 successful attacks. A pretty powerful and eye-catching event. Watching the second episode will only be a logical continuation.
