The premise
After being infected in the wake of a violent pandemic and with only 48 hours to live, a father struggles to find a new home for his baby daughter.
Horror Vault's take
In a sun-scorched post-apocalyptic Australia, a father races against a brutal biological deadline after a violent pandemic sweeps the country. With his infant daughter strapped to his back and time running out, he must navigate a dangerous and transformed outback in search of someone — anyone — who can protect her when he no longer can. The film leans into raw emotional territory as much as survival horror, grounding its story in the vast, unforgiving Australian landscape. Encounters with Indigenous characters bring an unexpected and quietly powerful dimension to the journey.
