Jared Nicholson & Ben Lawrence
2026, Australia, 96 min
In an era where conspiracy theories threaten the fabric of society, Aftermath is a fearless psychological portrait of two lives bound by trauma and obsession.
When gun massacre survivor Wendy Scurr meets filmmaker Jared Nicholson, she is already deep into a decades-long pursuit of truth - silenced by authority. What begins as a testament to survival becomes a gripping immersion into memory, belief, and the fragile nature of reality itself.
As Jared documents Wendy's quest, he too is drawn into a web of misinformation. Their bond - both redemptive and ruinous - becomes a mirror for collective trauma, revealing that behind every conspiracy lies a deeper betrayal.
Part confession, part elegy, Aftermath is a raw and urgent exploration of paranoia and devotion that exposes the harrowing world of alternative facts - where even the most rational minds can be ensnared, and where truth is no longer a refuge, but a battleground.
