Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

This Portuguese production is part of a wave of European genre films trying to capture Hunger Games-style dystopia on a fraction of the budget.

Trivia

The film's 4.0 TMDB rating makes it arguably worse than most student films, yet it somehow attracted international actors — the power of a wild premise.
