LOGLINE
In a post-apocalyptic Earth, the discovery of a cryogenically suspended woman from the ancient past provokes fear and spiritual fervor in a desperate village, sending a young warrior and the mysterious woman on a dangerous quest for a lost city and answers that could restore humanity.
SYNOPSIS
In a post-apocalyptic world scorched by catastrophe, a small human settlement clings to survival under the oppressive rule of Amon, a fanatical priest who demands human sacrifices to appease the Sun Gods. When young hunter Ethan and his sister, Ebba, stumble upon a long-forgotten cryochamber in the wastelands, they awaken Sky—a mysterious woman with fragmented memories of a lost civilization.
As Amon tightens his grip and chaos erupts, Ethan must confront Warrick, the priest’s brutal enforcer, in a final, desperate battle for freedom. With Amon’s rule shattered and the truth revealed, hope is reborn, and from the ashes of the old world, a new future begins to rise.
Believing Sky to be the prophesied savior, the villagers place their faith in her. But when Ebba is accidentally sealed inside the cryochamber, Ethan and Sky are forced on a perilous journey to the fabled Ark, a facility that may hold the key to her rescue—and the truth about the past. Along the way, they traverse the ruins of a forgotten world, battle deadly threats, and uncover the devastating origins of the cataclysm that ended civilization.

ANGLE
SANCTUARY is set in a primitive future where the fall of modern civilization has been buried beneath myth, mysticism, and half-remembered history.
In this brutal world, survival depends on faith in ancient “gods” — unknowable forces believed to have destroyed the old world. But when Ethan, a troubled outcast haunted by dreams of the past, crosses paths with Sky, a mysterious young woman with a strange connection to pre-collapse technology, their unlikely alliance sets a dangerous truth in motion.
Driven by a search for Sky’s missing father and a legendary mega-structure rumored to pierce the clouds above a forgotten city, they begin to unravel a buried past — and a terrifying possibility: that the gods were never divine… and the old world may not be as dead as it seems.
