Neon has just released the full trailer for The End, the highly anticipated narrative feature film directed by acclaimed documentary filmmaker Joshua Oppenheimer. Known for his powerful documentaries like The Act of Killing and The Look of Silence, Oppenheimer’s transition to fiction cinema promises to be equally captivating. Set to release on December 6, 2024, The End features an exceptional cast, including Tilda Swinton, Michael Shannon, George MacKay, Moses Ingram, and Lennie James.
The End follows George MacKay as a young man who has spent his entire life in a remote bunker, isolated from the outside world. Born into seclusion, MacKay’s character knows little beyond the stories his father, Michael Shannon—a former energy tycoon—tells him and the curious book they work on together. His mother, played by Tilda Swinton, is preoccupied with maintaining the family’s lavish art collection, creating an illusion of normalcy. However, the family’s fragile routine is upended when a mysterious woman, played by Moses Ingram, arrives at their doorstep seeking refuge. Her arrival shakes the already tense dynamics of the family, unraveling their carefully constructed lives.
The screenplay for The End was co-written by Oppenheimer and Rasmus Heisterberg, with music by Marius De Vries and Josh Schmidt. The film promises to explore themes of isolation, human nature, and the complexities of family dynamics in a world cut off from everything else. The trailer hints at the slow-burning tension and emotional depth the story will unravel, with Oppenheimer’s unique touch bringing a compelling narrative to the screen.
With its star-studded cast and Oppenheimer’s distinctive storytelling style, The End is shaping up to be a must-see film. Mark your calendars for December 6, 2024, when The End arrives in theaters, offering a thought-provoking and immersive cinematic experience.
