Plot
In the gripping saga of "Restart the Earth" (2021), humanity finds itself on the precipice of self-destruction as a desperate gamble against environmental disaster spirals dangerously out of control. In a heroic bid to thwart the relentless onslaught of desertification, scientists engineer a ground-breaking drug designed to rapidly multiply plant cells. However, this miraculous breakthrough harbors a terrifying side effect: the liberation of plants' stress systems, awakening a primal consciousness within them.
As the plants begin to overpopulate, they evolve into a menacing green tide that swiftly engulfs entire cities, transforming mankind's urban fortresses into verdant ruins overnight. This botanical onslaught sparks a global cataclysm, threatening to erase human civilization from the annals of Earth's history. Suddenly, the world stands on the brink of a new age, one ruled by sentient foliage.
A united global task force, spearheaded by a Chinese team, is hastily assembled to counteract this imminent threat. Armed with a newly developed drug aimed at inhibiting the accelerated plant activity, they embark on a perilous journey through the entwined remains of once-bustling metropolises. Along their path, they encounter pockets of survivors, their shared plight binding them together in a desperate mission to reclaim their planet.
In "Restart the Earth", humanity's survival hangs in the balance, teetering between a past marked by desertification and a future dominated by sentient plants. This adrenaline-fueled journey through a world turned upside down will leave viewers on the edge of their seats, questioning the true cost of survival in a world where the line between savior and destroyer is as thin as a leaf.
