About The Flicker

A year after a solar flare scorches the Earth, step-sisters Millie and Rose leave home with their infant half-brother and dog when their parents are gone and supplies run low. Searching for Millie’s grandmother, they travel through the burning landscape with other survivors while evading the resource-hoarding Hive.
