Stone Age horror set in prehistoric Scottish highlands, following a disparate gang of early humans who band together in search of a new land.
Following their leader’s promise of a better life, the tribe take their chances and embark on a perilous quest across unknown and treacherous terrains. But when they suspect a malevolent, potentially mystical, being is hunting them down, the terrified clan are forced to confront a danger they never envisaged.
Shot in an isolation bubble in the Scottish Highlands during the pandemic, with the cast speaking in a fictional prehistoric language (with subtitles).
