Premise

A wealthy family lives in an underground bunker two decades after the end of the world, which they directly contributed to.

Cast

Production

It was announced in October 2021 that Joshua Oppenheimer had set his next film at Neon, with Tilda Swinton, George MacKay and Stephen Graham set to star.[1] In March 2023, Moses Ingram, Michael Shannon, Bronagh Gallagher, Tim McInnerny and Lennie James joined the cast, with Graham replaced by Shannon.[2] Shannon plays the patriarch of the family in the bunker, and he both sings and dances in the role.[3]

Filming began in Ireland in March 2023, with production also set to occur in Italy and Germany.[4] The production received €480,000 in funding from Eurimages.[5]

Distribution

The film is slated to screen in the Special Presentations program at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival on 6 September 2024. However, TIFF has tagged the screening only as a Canadian premiere, not as a world premiere, indicating its likely inclusion in another film festival whose program has yet to be announced; a possibility could be the Telluride Film Festival, the lineup for which is typically announced only a day before the festival begins.[6] [7]
