Alchemy has announced today that they picked up the North American rights to
Stephen Fingleton‘s feature debut,
The Survivalist, which just had its premiere at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival. The film stars
Martin McCann, Mia Goth, and
Olwen Fouéré, and takes place in a post-apocalyptic future where a man living alone in the wilderness takes in a wandering mother and daughter. When describing this film, the word bleak comes to mind, but somehow it doesn’t feel strong enough to convey just how bleak this story is- think
The Road only more depressing.
The Survivalist doesn’t have a release date just yet, you can read our full review here.
