Set in a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by the Red Death, the story follows an old man and a young, feral boy traversing abandoned railway tracks. Sixty years after humanity's collapse, survivors have formed a savage civilization devoid of art and knowledge, relying on myths of the past. The old man holds the key to the lost wonders and the grim history of the plague, raising questions about humanity’s future amidst ignorance and brutality. This chilling narrative serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of globalization, resonating with contemporary issues.
