The Last Breath (2024 film)

The Last Breath is a 2024 science fiction thriller film directed by Eva Rostova and starring Anya Petrova and Ben Carter. The film is set in the near future, where Earth's atmosphere has become dangerously polluted, requiring specialized breathing equipment for survival outdoors.

The plot centers around Dr. Aris Thorne (Carter), a brilliant but disillusioned scientist working for a powerful corporation, OmniCorp, that controls the production and distribution of clean air. Thorne discovers that OmniCorp is deliberately manipulating the severity of the pollution crisis to maximize profits, and that the "clean air" they provide is not as safe as they claim. He teams up with Lena Volkov (Petrova), a resourceful activist who has been fighting against OmniCorp's environmental practices.

Together, Thorne and Volkov embark on a perilous mission to expose OmniCorp's corruption and find a truly sustainable solution to the atmospheric crisis. They face constant threats from OmniCorp's security forces and must navigate the increasingly hostile and polluted landscape. The film explores themes of corporate greed, environmental responsibility, and the fight for survival in a world facing ecological collapse.

The Last Breath was praised for its compelling storyline, strong performances, and relevant social commentary. However, some critics noted its predictable plot points and reliance on genre tropes. The film received several awards nominations, including Best Science Fiction Film at the Galaxy Awards.
