The film is the directorial debut for Sheridan, a love story in a post apocalyptic. A young couple attempting to live through a relentless illness , living alone. Their quiet sheltered life is shattered when a stranger arrives.
Once again for a debut feature, impressive. The trailer teases the film is full atmosphere, dread, unease, terrifyingly the film resonates with the coronavirus in many ways. Very claustrophobic and we cannot wait to see the twist on the vampiric myth too.

Rose uses the peace and quiet to work on her novel, while Sam sets traps, hunts animals and goes to work fortifying the hidden cottage they call home. In another life, their world would seem idyllic; but Rose’s mystery illness has clouded any sense of normality that the couple may achieve.
