In a post apocalyptic world, science and technology have backfired leaving unfathomable destruction and a permanently diseased planet in it's wake. A virus is mutating the human race turning innocent survivors into mindless cannibals. In a savage future world devoid of hope, a man infected with the deadly viral disease must cope with the burden of a new born son, ensuring his survival. Reminiscent of the work of Lynch, Maddin and Tarkovsky, the Defiled is a black and white epic of unparalleled artistry examining life, death and the ultimate sacrifice of love.
