The HUnger

“That time of night, it’s hard to tell what’s tree and what’s six-foot four man in a raincoat. ‘Til they start to run at you.”

Megan and Deborah live alone on their farm in the Yorkshire Dales. What was once their home has now become their only refuge from an increasingly dangerous outside world. They have their farm, their food and each other. But when their fragile harmony is sent into a dark, downward spiral, the cost of survival is chillingly laid bare.

Kitchen sink drama meets post-apocalyptic horror, The Hunger is about morality and motherhood at the end of the world.
