The End

An all-star cast, including Tilda Swinton, Michael Shannon, and George MacKay, shines in this post-apocalyptic musical about a family whose life in a palatial bunker is upended by a new arrival. Oscar nominated and BAFTA winning Joshua Oppenheimer made his name as a documentarian with the The Act of Killing, which explored the shocking extent of human denial to justify committing atrocities. In his ambitious and stirring post-apocalyptic musical, he tackles similarly dystopian themes. In the near future, a mother and father (Tilda Swinton and Michael Shannon) have taken refuge in a palatial bunker, safe from the broken world they helped devastate. Their son (George MacKay) has never known any other life, so when a young woman (Moses Ingram) unexpectedly arrives, she causes him to question everything he knows, threatening the fragile harmony of their family. Screening as part of Official Selection The screening on 4 March will be followed by a Q&A with George McKay (cast). View all GFF25 Q&A Screenings here.
