Hungry (2026)

Director: Susanne Brandstätter

Cast: Jack Gilbert, Heribert Hirt, Michelle Meagher, Marion Nestle, Jeff Ricketts

In a near-future world emptied of human life, a mysterious entity embarks on a haunting investigation. Armed with recovered voice recordings from the past—interviews conducted by filmmaker Susanne Brandstätter with leading global scientists and experts before the catastrophe—this being pieces together the chain of events that erased nearly all living things. Each recorded conversation reveals fresh insights into how environmental collapse, the degradation of the biosphere, failing crops, and ultimately humanity’s extinction unfolded. While *Hungry* presents a stark and chilling vision of what lies ahead, the interviews carry a hopeful counterpoint: the destructive spiral can still be halted before it’s too late.
