Description
The sunshine state lies in darkness. Los Angeles is in ruins, left to the angels now. In this desolate landscape, two individuals, Cal and Frida, have built a fragile existence in the wilderness. Consumed by fear of the future and mourning for a past they can't reclaim, they seek comfort in each other's company. Their tentative life is disrupted when Frida discovers she is pregnant. With no clear path forward, the couple sets out to find a settlement that can offer them security. However, this new world poses its own dangers, and they must navigate a complex web of threats and uncertainties. As they struggle to come to terms with their uncertain future, Cal and Frida are forced to confront the darker aspects of human nature and the resilience that defines us.
