Ava micheals woke up in a strage place where people were pulled from earth and onto another planet and matched with somebody the keepers picked for you.They weren't aloud to leave and you lived a life they created ,this process was used to ensure that earth would be repopulated after it ended in 8 years.You were lucky if you we're chosen to survive the end of the world but that's not how Ava or her match Norman sees it.
