Carlos Gómez-Trigo https://carlosgomeztrigo.com/ As a fan of post-apocalyptic fiction, I've read enough books and watched enough TV/Movies to know that it's not the living dead that you need to be afraid of at the end of the world, just the living. People always end up as the biggest threat to one another once the end-of-days sets in and in Carlos Gómez-Trigo's explosive sci-fi short Survivers, the biggest danger this trio encounter...are each other. When you think of a science fiction film, you probably instantly imagine far-off galaxies and spaceships, but Survivers is much more down to earth. Opening in an near-empty car park, the short introduces its three central characters as they sit in a car, the glow from their live-saving headgear emanating eerily from the vehicle. An unidentified voice, blasting from a loud speaker nearby, provides us with all the basic information - "This is not a drill. Please Stay indoors. Help is on its way" - we need to understand their situation. With their conversation revealing the zone they find theirselves in "should" be free of gas shortly, the trio have to decide when they should take off their headgear. - S/W Curator, Rob Munday FULL REVIEW: https://www.shortoftheweek.com/2023/06/19/survivers/ Cast: Stephanie Magnin, Maarten Dannenberg, Alex Moreu Director of photography: Marino Pardo Costume designer: Noelia Lebrato Art director: Iván Pinilla Editor: David Castro González Sound designer: Alex Marais Music: Christian Azuaje Reproduced on this channel with the permission of the filmmakers.
