Aftermath

In an era where conspiracy theories threaten the scaffolds of society like never before, Aftermath is a fearless psychological portrait of two lives intertwined by trauma and obsession.

When massacre survivor Wendy Scurr meets filmmaker Jared Nicholson, she is already deep into her decades-long pursuit of truth after being silenced by authority. What begins as a testament to survival becomes an immersion into memory, belief, and the fragile scaffolding of reality itself.

Spanning decades of archive, late-night calls, and intimate confessions, their connection deepens both redemptive and ruinous. As Nicholson documents Wendy's quest for answers, he too becomes entangled in a web of misinformation. As the world around them fractures under the weight of fear and paranoia, their bond becomes a mirror to a larger reflecting of collective trauma, revealing that every conspiracy hides a betrayal.

Part confession, part elegy, Aftermath is a raw exploration of paranoia, and devotion that bears witness to the harrowing effects of trauma and illuminates the dark world of alternative facts, where even the most unlikely of people can be ensnared … and where truth is no longer a refuge but a battleground.
