Synopsis

After Us is a queer driven anthological, post-apocalyptic series about what people will do to survive. 

In this pilot, a bereaved father played by Noah Kershisnik (I See the Demon) seeks shelter in an old church, only to discover another survivor played by Nick Garner is living on the other side of a zombie crowded street. As they build a relationship with one another they see a pair of undead below developing a similar relationship. Played by Tori Pence (Studio C) and McKell Rae.
