In the near future, after a series of catastrophic events, the world has plunged into chaos. Destroyed infrastructure, the absence of a functioning government and rampant crime have turned once prosperous territories into an arena of ruthless struggle for survival.
Totalitarian enclaves have emerged from the ruins of civilization, trying to hold on to power by force, but to no avail. In this post-apocalyptic world, Max Rockatansky, a former police officer, now a lonely wanderer, forced to fight for existence in the conditions of a cruel reality, wanders.
Fate brings him together with an eccentric inventor piloting a homemade autogyro. This somewhat naive character becomes Max's guide into the world of a small community settled near an oil rig. This place, which stores a valuable resource - gasoline, becomes the object of constant attacks by a gang of ruthless marauders.
Initially, Max is driven solely by personal gain. He agrees to help the community find a powerful tractor needed to transport fuel, hoping to get his share of the gasoline and continue on his way.
However, a series of unforeseen circumstances, including the loss of his own car and his faithful dog, force him to reconsider his plans. Wounded and deprived of everything, he finds unexpected salvation in the form of an autogyro pilot. This act of kindness awakens a sense of responsibility in Max, and he decides to help desperate people by leading a dangerous mission to transport fuel…
