In the midst of an electoral campaign, Governor Harper Finn launches a wave of illegal immigrant arrests. They can either be expelled or take part in a special program in a retirement home. But the hallucinated eyes of the worrying pensionaries hide many a secret.
Poetic fables disguised as horror films are alive and well ! Like a Soylent Green revisited by Get Out, this punchy and lighthearted dystopian thriller rediscovers the vivacity of a cathartic cinema where one terror hides another: through the genre, contemporary America jumps out at our face. Between a suspense movie and an entertaining teen movie, young filmmaker Diego Hallivis revisits the classics with impertinence and above all opts for humor.
