In the near future, two teenage sisters, Nell and Eva, live in a remotely located home with their father, Robert, in a forest. There is a massive, continent-wide power outage that appears to be part of a region-wide technological collapse. Nell goes to the car to get the headlamp but fails to close the hatch door. While left open all night the car battery is drained, so they are left stranded for days. Eventually their father gets the car working and they make it to the nearest town where they buy supplies including gas from a man named Stan who's guarding the store. Later, Eva attends dance class while her sister meets up with Eli, a boy she has a crush on. Returning home, they see a stranded car and the girls' father offers to help the passengers, but after they brandish guns the family move on. The father says they will not return to town until the power is restored, but Nell, wanting to see Eli again, throws a fit at this news. Later, while cutting down a tree a bolt on the chainsaw comes loose and he accidentally cuts his leg badly. The girls hear his screams and run to find him, Eva attempts to hold pressure on the wound while Nell uses a belt as a tourniquet. Knowing he is bleeding to death, he tells the girls to take care of each other and love one another. They stay with his body throughout the night, when animals are lingering in the darkness, the next day they bury him where he died in the forest so the wild pigs can't eat him.
