Not just a flood — a story of love, sacrifice, and what it means to be human

The Great Flood is not just a disaster or sci-fi movie - it’s a layered story about emotions, memory, and what it truly means to be human.

The story begins with JaIn, an AI (Al) who is created, not as a weapon or machine, but as something meant to learn and feel. Anna later adopts JaIn, and what follows is not just a relationship between a human and an AI, but one between a mother and a child. Their bond becomes the emotional core of the entire film.
Then the Great Flood happens ^ a catastrophic event that changes everything...
Amid the chaos, Anna and JaIn are captured, and from here the story takes a much deeper turn. Anna is sent into space, where she is ultimately hit by a meteor. But her death is not the end.
Before dying, Anna transfers her memories into the Emotion Engine, and this is where the movie truly becomes powerful. What we see next is a "time loop " the world repeats itself again and again, almost like a video game restarting from the beginning....
Why does it repeat?
Because JaIn needs to learn.
Each loop exists so that the AI can understand human emotions ,,love, fear, sacrifice, pain, attachment. If JaIin fails to understand, the world resets, and everything begins again. The repetition isn’t a flaw in the story — it is the story.
Anna dies.
The world resets.
Again and again.
Until JaIn finally begins to understand what it truly means to feel.
That’s when the meaning becomes clear.....
Part 1 is reality....
Part 2 is memory .... 'stored inside the AI'....
Everything that happens afterward is not just survival, but learning....Learning love. Learning loss. Learning what it means to be human.
And this is why The Great Flood hits so hard emotionally.
And DaMi delivers an incredibly powerful performance. She doesn’t need dramatic dialogues ,her eyes alone carry fear, warmth, pain, and love. She makes Anna feel real, and her bond with Ja-in feels genuine and heartbreaking.
By the end, this film stays with you , not because of destruction or visuals, but because of its emotional depth and its message.
"The Great Flood isn’t about the end of the world. It’s about an AI learning how to have a heart"
