Director: Joshua Armstrong

Year: 2019

Ravaged by war, the world recovers from a divided past. The last remaining survivors struggle to not only survive, but to also find their place. Morality is tested to its limits and a harsh environment has moulded demented madmen. Exploring themes of mental illness and equality, two strangers - a mute, and a man escaping his past - venture into the quiet world side by side. One looking to save his kidnapped lover from a masked gang of sociopaths, and the other seeking his stolen cassette player while being haunted by bizarre and ominous dreams. Both of them have one destination - a peaceful community only for women - a place called 'Eve.'
