Facing the contamination of their cities and dwellings on the shore by a deadly virus, the remainder of humankind flees across the oceans towards uninhabited parts of the globe.

Occupying huge oil tankers, they search for a land free from plague. Their leader, a man obsessed with the desire to rescue the remaining population, gathers healthy humans on the decks of the ships. Unfortunately, having been infected by the fatal virus himself, he is oblivious to its true nature. They depart on a long, desperate journey into the unknown. Their aim, an unknown land, a new earth.

The film is based on a fairly complex and symbolic storyline reflecting the dramatic nature of life and the inevitability of certain events.

“When I was working on Ark I tried to keep my distance and construct the story so that after watching the film you wouldn’t be able to judge it unequivocally. I wanted to create a sort of insatiability which would push the viewer to watch it again and think about it,” says Grzegorz Jonkajtys.
