During a rapid collapse of society, a wealthy man’s mountain village struggles between the military constraints of its veteran operators and the rural values of its member families. Neal McDonough agreed to star in this project because he liked Angel Studios and was keen to play a role that was not that of a villain. Following his role as a benefactor in The Shift (2023), McDonough had an agreement with Angel Studios to submit some of his projects to the company for optional release if they were approved by the audiences who formed the Angel Guild. This was the first of his projects to be approved for funding and release. Featured in 2023 Illuminate – Angel Studios (2023)
