‘Vesper’ Trailer Reveals a Beautiful & Dangerous Sci-Fi Fantasy
Vesper is a post-apocalyptic story about struggling to live on a eco-ravaged Earth – and the journey to save it.
Vesper and her father struggle to survive on an Earth in collapse. When she finds a way to save the planet she has to take a dangerous journey filled with strange creatures. She uses her wits, strength, and bio-hacking abilities to fight for the future.
This is definitely a visual feast with some interesting creatures. It has a dreamy, fantasy like quality with forests that house beautiful glowing plants. The danger is clear, though. Not everything in these forests and swamps are friendly, however. Based on this trailer the story is taking social and climate issues we’re seeing in today’s world and showing us what could be. Can Vesper survive? Can we?
Critics are already singing this movie’s praises. I’m looking forward to seeing it for myself.

Vesper Details
The movie stars Raffiella Chapman, Rosy McEwen, Eddie Marsan, Richard Brake, and Edmund Dehn. It’s directed by Kristina Buozyte and Bruno Samper.
“Set after the collapse of the Earth’s ecosystem, Vesper follows the titular headstrong 13-year-old girl, who uses her survival skills to subsist in the remnants of a strange and dangerous world with her ailing father.
When Vesper finds a mysterious woman, Camellia, alone and disoriented after an aerial crash, she agrees to help find her missing companion in exchange for safe passage to the Citadel—the dark central hub where oligarchs live in comfort thanks to state-of-the-art biotechnology.
Vesper soon discovers that her brutal neighbor, Jonas, is searching for Camellia, who is harboring a secret that could change all of their lives forever. Forced into a dangerous adventure, Vesper must rely on her wits and bio-hacking abilities to unlock the key to an alternate future.”
Vesper arrives in theaters and on VOD on September 30th.
