A dying soldier and his impulsive ward chase a cure through hell—trust is their only weapon.
With the world in it's final death throes, two former soldiers can rely only upon one another to survive. Noah (stricken with advance stages of a virulent blood disease known as R.U.S.T.) worsens every day. Aurora, despite being young and impulsive, has come to look upon Noah as her guardian and she desperately wants to save him. The two must face the remains of a forgotten city, a spanning wasteland, and Ravagers as they search for a cure.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Kalen Rixon directed this as a proof-of-concept for a potential feature expansion—R.U.S.T. lore runs deeper than the runtime suggests.
The Ravagers' design deliberately echoes 1970s Australian outback horror, nodding to the Ozploitation tradition Rixon cited as influence.
