Ascendants: When mankind’s faith in the afterlife is replaced with scientific certainty, the divide between those ordained to eternity and those to oblivion lays the groundwork for this socio-theological thriller, where both salvation and damnation rest in exclusively mortal hands. Set in a near and theocratic dystopian future, Ascendants follows the rise of an agnostic genetic underclass, deemed unfit for a life in an increasingly violent, highly segregated society. The Ascendants Anthology is a series of short films that take place during key events of a future mythology. Ascendants is a multi-format project. We are garnering interest in selling a 2-hr script as a pilot for a scripted series or trilogy of films by creating this series. Each short in the Anthology explores a different aspect of the life created by the discovery of Ascension - and each film takes place at different key historical points. It's not the life you lead. It's the blood you bleed...
