The year 2024. The exploitation of the shield by a powerful corporation dooms the planet to an ecological disaster. Connor MacLeod lives the life of a simple mortal. But when Katana—the ruler of the planet Zeist, the ancestral home of all immortal warriors—challenges the Highlander, MacLeod regains his mystical power.
