CRY OF THE WILD

SYNOPSIS

A group of privileged Los Angeles millennials—united by their Burning Man bond—flee the chaos of ICE raid riots for a weekend getaway. Ted, the group's alpha, rents a luxurious Airbnb in an off-season ski resort, hoping for a wild weekend of drugs and hedonism. But as they settle into the isolated forest, their phone service dies, and tensions begin to flare. The arrival of an apex predator forces the group to confront their insecurities and buried conflicts. To survive, they'll have to put aside their egos and work together—but not everyone will make it out alive.

 

CRY OF THE WILD blends genre-defying horror with deep human themes, the film explores survival, identity, and social bonds under extreme pressure, while tapping into the raw, real-world tensions of today. Through immersive storytelling and real-world social media integration, it resonates with Gen-Z audiences, offering an unforgettable cinematic experience that blurs the line between societal norms and our primal instincts.
