Seminal Animals

Overview

In the near future, a new law imposes a 9 PM curfew on women, effectively leaving them without legal protection from crimes committed after that time. As violent gangs begin to control the streets at night, Samira, a single mother working in a wealthy part of the city, struggles to return home before curfew every evening. When an emergency at the clinic forces her to travel home late one night, Samira must cross a dangerous, deserted city controlled by violent gangs. At the same time, her son Nabil becomes increasingly involved with one of these gangs and its ruthless leader. What begins as a political dystopian reality becomes a nighttime fight for survival, as Samira races against time to make it home safely.
