Timeless dystopian drama

I have to get it out first; this movie has a score here of 4.9 is a scandal. Have those who have scored actually seen the film? I doubt. For this is both gripping and incredibly insightful.

A society in total decay. We've seen movies like The Road and The Rover that depict survival and people in deep crisis. But I've never seen it better portrayed than in this movie. The plot is based on Knut Faldbakken's novel of the same name. Sweetwater is based on a life that is only about survival. The best and worst qualities in those who cling to life come to the fore. Alliances are built, and strategies for survival lay. The film brings out both the horror of never quite knowing what the day will bring, and the strength it takes to survive in such a world.

In light of what is happening in the world now (2021), with the climate crisis, terror and pandemic, I think Sweetwater is more relevant than ever. Unfortunately.
