After the Dark

DramaFantasyMysterySci-FiThriller107 min

In an international school in Jakarta, a philosophy teacher gives his graduating class one last thought experiment: a nuclear apocalypse has begun, and only a handful of them can fit inside an underground shelter. As each student argues why they deserve a place, the exercise turns into a ruthless test of logic, privilege, faith, and self-interest. The rules keep shifting as the teacher runs the scenario again and again, changing who survives and what they are willing to sacrifice. Sophie Lowe and Rhys Wakefield are among the students pulled into the debate as the line between classroom game and personal reckoning starts to disappear.
