When the Earth Bleeds

SPECIAL SESSIONS | Offline

The plague brings out the worst in everyone and only the Man remains immune. Consumed by desperation, in an attempt to save the Woman and protect his Son, the Man goes looking for help and travels through the village where nothing is as it seems. During a surreal and hallucinating night, the Man, haunted by memories of another life, begins to lose track of reality.
