Set in a bleak,... AFTER THE APOCALYPSE is a futuristic drama about five survivors trying to make sense of a New World after a devastating urban catastrophe challenges their basic human needs. Set in a bleak, post-urban landscape in the aftermath of the Third World War, the film presents a strangely limited environment where a single woman and four men are forced to communicate without words as a result of destructive gasses from the war. When their pasts are erased by the war, they are forced to recreate their lives both individually and collectively. [More]

Watching a film like this is similar to finding yourself transfixed by a specific painting after your girlfriend drags you to the art museum.

Yasuaki Nakajima’s futuristic look at the death/rebirth of humanity is a thoughtful view of the failings, drives and hope for mankind.

Despite its spasms of brutality and a swerve into the macabre, Yasuaki Nakajima's post-apocalypse movie is gentle at heart and terribly sincere.

Bleak, minimalist science fiction reminiscent of Chris Marker via Andrei Tarkovsky’s Stalker.
