To the Lake (2019)

In the heart of Moscow, an insidious virus transforms the vibrant city into a lifeless mausoleum. Civilization crumbles in the blink of an eye; electricity fades into oblivion, money loses its might, and the uninfected are plunged into a desperate struggle for survival, battling for scraps of food and dwindling fuel. Sergei, our protagonist, finds refuge in the outskirts of the city with his beloved and her autistic son, far from the viral carnage. Yet, driven by a fierce sense of duty, he braves the desolate cityscape to rescue his estranged ex-wife and their son, despite the bitterness that lingers between them. In this grim new world, old wounds and grudges must be buried. This unlikely group of survivors embarks on a perilous journey to the north, seeking sanctuary in an isolated hunting lodge on a forsaken island. It is an odyssey of survival and redemption against the backdrop of a global apocalypse. "To the Lake" weaves a family drama amidst a dystopian nightmare, marking a pioneering venture into the genre of post-apocalyptic TV shows in Russia. Based on the critically acclaimed novel, Vongozero by Yana Vagner, which has been translated into eleven languages, it features a compelling performance by Maryana Spivak, celebrated for her role in the Cannes Jury Prize-winning film, "Loveless". "To the Lake" is a chilling exploration of humanity's struggle against extinction, where love, loyalties and survival instincts are put to the ultimate test.
