Briefing

Synopsis

Since the war on another rogue state is going so well, United States Secretary of Defence D. Crockett Bunker, in an understandably bullish mood, openly briefs reporters in the Pentagon press room. Throughout the session, Secretary Bunker is articulate and concise, even when some of the more radical elements in the press ask obstinate questions. Although sticking firmly to his principles, Secretary Bunker remains diplomatic and courteous throughout. But supposing he had come out saying what he really meant? Rewind. Start again. The same press conference, but this time Bunker gives it the way America wants to hear it!

Year:

Told through leaked footage compiled by a whistle-blower, the film follows Emma and Richard, a couple thrust into the wilderness to survive for 100 days. Their confidence quickly turns to terror as a malevolent creature begins stalking them, ultimately killing Richard in a gruesome attack. Emma escapes and infiltrates the facility where the show's creators review their "progress." There, she discovers the chilling truth: the creature is part of their unholy science. With the odds stacked against her, Emma turns the tables - delivering brutal justice with unexpected aid from the very horror that was meant to destroy her. A darkly satirical blend of horror, sci-fi, and mockumentary, THE WILDING exposes the monstrous extremes the powerful will go to cheat death - and the human cost of their ambition.
