In the year 2077, Tech 49 Jack Harper (Tom Cruise) is one of the last drone repairmen stationed on Earth.
Jack tells us that the planet was nearly destroyed sixty years ago,
during a war against a race of alien invaders known as Scavengers
("Scavs"). The Scavs destroyed the moon, causing massive earthquakes and tsunamis, and then launched their invasion. They were only defeated by the use of nuclear weapons,
which left most of the planet irradiated and uninhabitable. The few
surviving humans migrated to a large space station called the "Tet", a
massive tetrahedral space station that orbits the Earth, and Titan, one of Saturn's Moons. From Tower 49, a base standing above the remains of the northeastern United States, Jack and his partner and lover Victoria "Vika" Olsen (Andrea Riseborough) work as a team to maintain the autonomous drones that defend giant ocean-borne power stations that generate fusion power from seawater before the final migration to Titan from the remnants of the Scav army. They receive their orders from Sally (Melissa Leo),
their mission commander, who is stationed on the Tet. The orbital Tet
station can only make line-of-sight transmissions to the pair. Jack
flies recon and repair missions to the surface, while Vika supervises
from Tower 49, a home at around 3000 feet (1000 meters) above sea level.
The two expect to leave Earth and join the other survivors on the Tet
in two weeks. Although Jack and Vika had their memories wiped five years
earlier for security reasons, Jack has recurring dreams about meeting a
mysterious woman at the Empire State Building
before the war—which was before he was born. Jack keeps a secret
retreat in a forested area he sometimes visits, also known as the lake
house.
