About the Film
As a way to prepare for disasters, family man Antoine attends a training
program on survivalism given by Alain, at his self-sufficient retreat.
Apprehending a natural, economical or social breakdown, the group goes through
drills meant to prepare them for apocalypses of all types. But the catastrophe
waiting for them is nothing like what they anticipated.
