Only 3 days left until the premiere of The Walking Dead season 4 and today’s short is one that’s gotten a lot of well-deserved attention. Cargo was a finalist at Tropfest Australia 2013 and tells a heartbreaking tale of a man trying to save his infant daughter from flesh eating zombies. What makes the story even more gut wrenching (pun most definitely intended) is the man realizes he’s been infected, so he forms a plan to save his little girl from himself while still trying to get her to human survivors.
SYNOPSIS:
Stranded in the midst of a zombie apocalypse, a man sets in motion an unlikely plan to protect the precious cargo he carries: his infant daughter.
