Rising sea levels drive the remnants of humanity to live in the last remaining habitable land masses on Earth in Lost City Raiders, the Sci Fi Channel's $6.4 million tribute to Kevin Costner's Waterworld. Two groups survive the flooding of the Earth: the poor, who huddle in near-starvation, and the rich, who survived (or engineered) the disaster and now live in artificial islands. But a third group, the Lost City Raiders, searches the flooded remains of cities for treasures in their high-tech submarines. Until one day, the Vatican orders them to find the Kingdom of Heaven on Earth. But evil forces are seeking it too. [C21 Media]
