The sci-fi flick takes place decades in the future, when the air on Earth has become ravaged with toxic gas and the population is forced to flee to one of Jupiter's moons. A young scientist named Sam (Death Note's Margaret Qualley) finds herself as one of the postcataclysmic planet's last remaining survivors, living alone in a mountaintop lab, safe from the air outside. Following in her father's footsteps, she's dedicated her life to finding a way for humans to adapt and survive Earth's harsh new surroundings, rather than abandoning it for the moon, IO. However, when another survivor (Avengers: Infinity War's Anthony Mackie) crash lands outside, Sam must decide if she wants to board the final shuttle scheduled to leave for the distant colony with the rest of humanity, or fight for the planet she grew up on.
Watch IO on Netflix now.
