The very thought is horrifying: what if a gigantic glacier broke away from the Arctic and suddenly began drifting south... It could mean a tidal wave that would slam into Norway and Britain and sweep across the Dutch and German coasts, destroying hundreds of towns and cities. When Greenpeace realizes that this worst-case scenario is about to become reality one day, they beg the authorities to warn the coastal residents. But even as the tidal wave begins gathering momentum, the authorities ignore their warnings - partly not to scare away vacationers like the Rittberg family, who have come to the North Sea coast as they do every summer. If the Rittbergs were only aware of the danger, they would not let little Benjamin go fishing or daughter Annette go sailing. The warning finally comes - but the 20-meter-high tsunami is already crashing through the low-lying towns, flattening church steeples, sweeping away livestock, obliterating entire communities... Can the Rittbergs still be saved? Or, for that matter, the millions of residents from Hamburg to Rotterdam?
