Surviving Earth (15)

Based on a true story, Surviving Earth follows Vlad, a Yugoslav refugee and gifted musician who fled to the UK in the 90s. Now rebuilding his life in Bristol, he longs to be the father his daughter Maria deserves, but the shadows of his past refuse to fade.

When he forms a band to reconnect with his roots, music becomes his lifeline - a fragile bridge between who he was and who he wants to be. But as difficulties arise, old habits begin to resurface and Vlad risks losing it all. Can he find redemption through love and music, or will the past drag him down once more?

A powerful debut feature from writer-director Thea Gajic, Surviving Earth announces the arrival of a bold and exciting new voice in contemporary British cinema.
