In a post-rapture world, Connor, an enforcer who prevents defections from the struggling populous, discovers a VHS-tape that proves the existence of a portal to paradise. A chance encounter with a captured AWOL citizen inspires him to reconsider his allegiance to the town. Leaving behind his sick brother behind, he chooses to defect from his decaying hometown and its authoritarian regime to chase his visions of the door. Relying on a tracker, he prophetic dreams, and his gut, Connor makes it into the lawless countryside before being captured by his hometown's best hunter, The Superior. However, rather than return him to the town like the other defectors, she has her own plans to get to the door. Connor forges a shaky allegiance with The Superior, agreeing to guide her to the Portal if she'll let him live. Always sleeping with one eye open, they embark on the road to the door, honoring their partnership as long as the other remains useful.

Selina Lee In Review Online Ultimately, Exodus leaves audiences spinning in circles, grasping for meaning but unlikely to find anything of substance. Jun 6, 2021 Full Review Ian Simmons Kicking the Seat This is one of those rare and very frustrating movies that plays as if every third scene was left on the cutting room floor.

Actually I So mysterious that even the writer couldn’t find the door to a decent plot. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/13/24 Full Review Chris B I would have had more fun violently shitting razorblades than i did watching this movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/30/24 Full Review joe m "Exodus" started off ok - dystopian, decaying, industrial town where a guy is taking care of his sick brother while working at a detention facility holding people trying to escape their crummy existence. Then a detainee tells the guard he can guide him to The Door. After that, the whole movie is an unraveling, existential mess. We're told early on this a post Rapture world, yet throughout the hero's quest and those he runs into there are just a bunch of snippets of new age faith and enlightenment, nothing even slightly Christian being referenced. The film is engaging yet ultimately incoherent and unsatisfying. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member A very, very strange indie sci-fi movie that goes from nothing to nowhere but has a fascinating soundtrack and a tantalizing quest. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Ze hebben de bewuste keuze gemaakt over de hele film een filter te plaatsen (dus over de video), en de filmmuziek harder te zetten dan de spraak (tenminste op het stukje voor 23 minuten.) Het minimalisme en weinig spraak moet spanning leveren?, niet altijd aan toe. Wel entertainend I guess maar meh ook niet heel. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member If your particular bent is existential navel-gazing then this offering should be right up you alley. If not, then prepare for an excruciatingly and confusing mental reaming. Perhaps the payoff can be construed by diligently sifting through the sparse glimmers of philosophical parallels that might conceivably be drawn the depicted events. Events that perhaps examine the paradoxical value and simultaneous meaningless of human existence and ancillary attempts to explore its deeper meaning, but even that metaphysical journey turns out to be tortured and brutally truncated.
