"Exodus" is an epic sci-fi fantasy drama set in a distant future on an even more distant planet. The last of the humankind lives safely behind the great walls of their colony, protected from the gigantic, bloodthirsty giants roaming in the wild. Only a corps of elite soldiers are allowed to venture behind the gates. Young Elias will do anything to become one of the soldiers in order to achieve the same recognition as his older brother, Jacob, a highly decorated veteran. Jacob, however, will not allow Elias to follow in his footsteps and does everything in his power to stop him. Elias defies his brother's will and joins the elite force behind his back. But what he doesn't know is that behind Jacob's hard and professional exterior, the years on the battlefield have left his soul scarred and traumatized. In a last attempt to protect Elias from suffering the same fate, Jacob follows him into the wild. This marks the beginning of a journey, not only into the alien world of their enemy, but to the heart of Jacob's trauma as Elias discovers the truth about the giants.
"Exodus" is a pilot, which was intended for a cross-media universe consisting of a TV series, a movie and a video game.
