Andreas, a teenager whose dead father was a celebrated geneticist, is living in a time when the ozone layer has been so seriously depleted that the sun's rays have become deadly to humanity. However, Andreas finds that thanks to his father's discoveries his skin can resist the burning sun. He is destined to be the world's new Adam. But will he find Eve? Another legacy from his father is the house, a bizarre, overgrown Garden of Eden, a primordial swamp endowed with intelligence and resourcefulness and weapons. When the townspeople discover Andreas' secret and rise up in fear against him, they realize that the house is not only alive, it is prepared to fight back.
