About
This is a concept pilot for the film production company Lystig Lag AS.
A virus spreads that exclusively affects the part of the brain that isn't fully developed until adulthood. The virus causes severe dementia in those infected, meaning essentially everyone over the age of 18 starts acting erratic, delusional, or violent.
The story follows a group of nine children and teenagers who have been forced to flee their homes and band together to survive. The group ranges from ages 7 to 16, creating an intense social dynamic. The narrative is driven by internal conflict and classic teen drama, set against a backdrop of an eerie and unpredictable world.
