Trailer

From the movie

"By the end of 2005, there were about 1000 m³ of ice in Demänovská Ice Cave. In 2022, it was only 80 m³."

"In 2017, the longest dry period since 1981 was recorded. It took 220 days."

"In the past 40 years, the average annual temperature in Slovakia has risen by 2.5 °C."

"Why is it so hot?" asks a young girl an online application. "It's due to the climate crisis." We don´t have to go to burning Australia or melting Antarctica to find the consequences of the climate crisis. We already feel them in our everyday lives wherever we live. The documentary After Us, The Flood explores the impacts of climate change on people and nature in Slovakia, a small landlocked country in Central Europe. The ice caves of Slovakia are fast melting, long-lasting droughts are destroying the crops and extreme heat threatens people´s health. But that's not all. If we want to avoid the worst-case scenario each of us must answer a simple question: "How do you want to continue?"
