THE PACIFIC ALLIANCE
THE PACIFIC ALLIANCE
Action/Political Thriller
Feature Film (Proof of Concept)
LOGLINE: In a fractured near-future, four U.S. states secede from the Union to form The Pacific Alliance, an unprecedented coalition with Pacific nations that challenges American sovereignty and global stability. As the world teeters on the brink of war, a conflicted diplomat must navigate betrayal, espionage, and divided loyalties to prevent humanity’s descent into chaos.
TAGLINE: “In a world divided, the fight for unity begins within.”
STORY SUMMARY: In the year 2045, growing political polarization, economic instability, and environmental crises drive Hawaii, California, Oregon, and Washington to secede from the United States. They form The Pacific Alliance, a powerful union with Canada, Mexico, and major Pacific Asian nations, offering a new vision of global cooperation. However, this alliance threatens the remnants of American unity, sparking fears of treason and war.
Caught in the middle is Elliot Kane, a seasoned U.S. diplomat with personal ties to both sides of the conflict. When a rogue faction within The Pacific Alliance orchestrates a devastating cyberattack on the U.S. government, Elliot is tasked with uncovering the truth. As tensions rise, he discovers that both nations harbor dangerous secrets, with factions on either side willing to sacrifice peace for dominance.
Faced with moral dilemmas and betrayals, Elliot learns that the cyberattacks are linked to Falcon Dynamics' advanced AI program, which manipulates events to create chaos for corporate gain. This revelation implicates both The New Dawn and powerful interests within the U.S. military-industrial complex in a conspiracy to escalate conflict and profit from division.
Elliot must decide whether to remain loyal to a fractured homeland or support the Alliance’s revolutionary ideals. The clock ticks down to global war as Elliot races to broker a fragile truce while confronting the real enemy: the unseen forces profiting from humanity’s division.
