Civilisation is coming to an end. While the Father experienced life before the apocalypse, the Son was born into an impoverished world in which the soil is barren, and hatred and savagery reign among those who survived. The death of his only relative gives a feral boy the pretext to journey beyond the confines of his home environment; only by doing this will he be able to decipher his father's journal, the most valuable artefact in his legacy. An adaptation of Gipi’s graphic novel of the same name, The Land of the Sons is a story of dystopia which can be taken both as fiction and as a cautionary vision of our own future.

Technically speaking, there is nothing wrong with The Land of Sons, and I do not want to criticize it too much. However, I have to say that plot-wise it is basically just a succession of things we have seen many times before in plenty of other far more compelling post-apocalyptic movies. So, in the end, it has very little new to offer the audience. Personally speaking, that was not quite enough for me. [KVIFF 2021]
