My Rating: * * * *
This movie had me riveted from the very beginning. It was harrowingly realistic in portraying a post-apocolyptic world. You wont find any fancy special effects or super hero, rather an eye opening look at survival.
A family returns home in France from holiday to find it taken over by another family seeking shelter and refuge. The intruding family shoots the dad and orders the mother, Anne, to leave with her two children. The story then follows Anne while she copes with tragedies at hand and trying to provide for her children. What caused the apocolypse is never revealed, neither is salvation. Instead we watch as quality of life is put into perspective and priorites are shifted. Now, water and bicycles are more valuable than compassion or integrity.
