Directed, cowritten, and coproduced by Dean Devlin, Geostorm (2017) is an American science-fiction disaster film that centers around a system of climate-controlling satellites called ‘Dutch Boy’. In 2019, an international coalition commissions the satellites following a series of devastating natural disasters. After successfully neutralizing a typhoon in Shanghai, chief architect Jake Lawson is reprimanded by a Senate sub-committee for acting without authorization. He is replaced by his brother Max, who works alongside Secretary of State Leonard Dekkom. Three years later, while stationed in the Registan Desert, a UN team discovers a frozen village.
As suspicions arise about Dutch Boy’s potential malfunction causing the event, the US government decides to send one person to fix the system. Following Makmoud Habib’s untimely death, Max convinces President Andrew Palma to launch an investigation into the events that led to his tragic passing. Max then enlists Jake to travel to the International Climate Space Station (ICSS) in order to gather information and uncover the truth. Meanwhile, back on Earth, a satellite malfunction leads to dangerous explosions in Hong Kong, putting Max’s acquaintance Cheng Long, who heads Dutch Boy’s department there, at great risk.
