It's the Fourth of July in Los Angeles, and Jamie, a broke illustrator who is behind on his rent, tries to throw a cookout while his overbearing roommate is out of town, but everything seems to go wrong.
In the face of an apocalyptic world, father and daughter are forced to grapple with their relationship while facing a pandemic that threatens to eliminate humanity. While the world decays around them they seek shelter and protection within their own house. Civilization slowly slips away leaving them forsaken and isolated, until a group of survivors suddenly shows up on their doorstep seeking help and shelter. Bringing in the survivors forces them to unite and a power struggle ignites within the house as each individual attempts to cope with the tragedy enveloping them. Even in this test of preserving the human spirit, these nine individuals begin to learn what it takes to be human and live within a rapidly changing world.
