About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a quiet, character-driven post-apocalyptic story focused on trust and relationship tension rather than action; Not for you if you need clear answers, fast pacing, or a Contagion-style plot.

Pros: strong performances; tense character dynamics; haunting loneliness | Cons: very slow pace; thin story; unresolved ending
