Synopsis:
A father and his young son walk south along a ruined road through the ashes of a burned, post-apocalyptic America.
They carry their few possessions in a cart and have only a pistol to protect themselves from the roaming bands of desperate survivors.
As they move through devastated towns and forests, they struggle with hunger, cold, and the constant threat of violence, while trying to hold onto hope, moral purpose, and the bond between them.
The journey becomes a stark test of love, endurance, and what it means to remain “the good guys” when civilization has collapsed.
