Prometheus, the titan who rebelled against the Olympian gods, stole fire from the gods and gave it to humans. Fire is the foundation of civilization. Humanity thus emerged from dark caves. They discovered science, writing, enlightenment, heating, various medicines in the field of health, and the domestication of wild animals. In short, Prometheus' act paved the way for humanity's civilization, liberated humanity, and provided the means for humanity to use its intellect. Zeus punished Prometheus for defying the order established by the gods, and Prometheus was subjected to various punishments and tortures for the sake of humanity.

The year is 1955, and a great flood is coming to Northfork, Montana. A new hydroelectric dam is about to be installed in the mountains above the town, ready to submerge the valley in the name of progress. It is the responsibility of a six-man Evacuation Committee to relocate the townsfolk to higher ground. Most have duly departed, but a few stubborn stragglers remain – among them a priest caring for a sickly orphan, a boy whose fevered visions are leading him to believe he is a member of a roaming band of lost angels desperately searching for a way home.

A bureaucrat interviews five souls to decide which of them will be given a life on Earth. But he soon faces an existential challenge of his own.
