This week we review and discuss Survivre (aka Survive), a French postapocalyptic disaster movie directed by Frédéric Jardin and starring Émilie Dequenne, Andreas Pietschmann and Lisa Delamar. It follows the adventures of a family trying to survive as the world oceans disappear following a solar flare. There are also murder crabs.
We discuss how the movie tells only the most basic story and avoids capitalising on its premise to create a compelling story, how characters are missing the most basic character arcs, how this movie is patronising to environmentalists, and much more.
