In 2154, Earth is overpopulated, diseased, and heavily polluted from ecocide. The planet’s citizens live in extreme poverty while the rich and powerful live on Elysium, an orbiting space station just outside of Earth’s atmosphere, with luxuries, including Med-Bays, medical devices that can heal any disease or condition.
Spider, a hacker living in Los Angeles, runs a space shuttle operation to smuggle people into Elysium. Elysium Defense Secretary Delacourt is in charge of preventing illegal entry to Elysium; after shooting down Spider’s space shuttles by Kruger, Elysium President Patel reprimands Delacourt for her unorthodox methods, threatening to discharge her position for any more actions unless she dismisses Kruger.
In retaliation, Delacourt offers Armadyne Corp CEO John Carlyle defense contracts for life if he creates a program that will allow Delacourt to conduct a coup and install herself as president. Carlyle writes the program and stores it inside his brain.
