THE DOG STARS

The Dog Stars Searches for Hope After the End of the World

Surviving the end of the world is one thing. Finding a reason to keep living is something else.

Ridley Scott's The Dog Stars brings Peter Heller's bestselling novel to the big screen with a post-apocalyptic thriller about two men who have figured out how to survive in a world where civilization has largely disappeared.

At the center of the story is Hig, a young pilot who has built an isolated life alongside Bangley, a hardened military survivalist.

Together, they've created a secure homestead and developed a system that keeps them alive in a brutal world where survival depends on preparation, instinct and knowing exactly who or what you can trust.

For Bangley, surviving may be enough.

For Hig, it isn't.

Everything changes when Hig picks up a mysterious radio transmission suggesting there could be something or someone beyond the isolated existence they've created.

Believing there may still be hope somewhere in the outside world, Hig makes the dangerous decision to leave the safety of their home and venture into the unknown.

What he finds could prove that humanity survived along with him.

Or remind him why isolation kept him alive in the first place.

Directed by Ridley Scott and based on Peter Heller's acclaimed novel, The Dog Stars combines post-apocalyptic survival with a more personal question about what remains after almost everything else has been taken away.

Because in this world, survival may be instinct , but humanity is still a choice.

The Dog Stars is now playing in theaters.
