It is a movie about faith, depicting the problems that mankind is likely to face in the future. People consume resources excessively, leading to wars caused by competition for resources, the world destroyed by wars, and everything is destroyed. There are only a few survivors hiding in the depths, and there is an extreme shortage of resources. This is what we may face in the future. With this extreme suffering, the world has returned to the original, violent law of the jungle. How can people who have been enslaved by violence find hope again, and how can the black bosses who rely on violence maintain their rule? The focus of this movie is here. The black boss knows that it is necessary to grasp people's thoughts, make them feel that they are the light, and let them follow in order to maintain its rule. So desperately to find this book of enlightenment, and the hero is to escort the book to the west, a place where this book can be well protected and spread. When can people living in misery find their own Book of Avery?

Eli: They say the war tore a hole in the sky, you've probably heard the stories.
Solara: Yeah.
Eli: The war tore a hole in the sky, the sun came down, burnt everything, everyone, I wandered, I didn't really know what I should do or where I was going. I was just moving from place to place, trying to stay alive. And then one day I heard this voice. I don't know how to explain it, it's like it was coming from inside me. But I could hear it clear as day. Clear as I can hear you talking to me now. It told me to carry the book west, it told me that a path would be laid out before me, that I'd be led to a place where the book would be safe. It told me I'd be protected, against anyone or anything that tried to stand in my way. If only I would have faith. That was thirty years ago and I've been walking ever since.
Solara: And you did all this because a voice told you to?
Eli: I know what I hear, I know what I heard, I know I'm not crazy, I didn't imagine it

Hoyt: [seeing two dead hijackers] It's like he's protected somehow. Like there's nothing that can touch him
Carnegie: Oh, he's just a fucking man. You put a bullet in him, he'll go down like any other.
