Based on the futuristic Dark Horse comic book action series (and very reminiscent of the classic movie Casablanca).

In 2017, during the Second American Civil War, nightclub owner Barb Wire earns extra cash as a mercenary and bounty hunter. Asked to track down a scientist who has fled towards neutral Canada with plans for a new bioweapon, Barb learns that rivals from both Civil War factions are also seeking the fugitive. Assisting the fleeing scientist is Barb's former lover Axel Hood, and she soon finds herself in a maze of twists and turns, betrayals and escapes as she decides whose side to take.
