The Cradle is a grounded sci-fi thriller exploring a fractured mother-daughter relationship against the backdrop of humanity’s final days. Blending emotional intimacy with high-concept tension, it examines guilt, survival, and the brutal calculus of what we owe the next generation when the world is collapsing. Visually atmospheric and thematically urgent, it sits squarely in the current wave of prestige sci-fi. The Cradle is character-driven, morally complex, and built for a market hungry for elevated, emotionally resonant genre stories.
