This is the third film written and produced by Mark and this time it’s sci-fi! In a post-apocalyptic world where the air is toxic to breathe and oxygen is a precious resource, a young boy embarks on a perilous supply run to obtain water and medicine for his ailing mother. With just his toy robot as a companion on his journey, he faces many obstacles, but the real danger is waiting for him back home.

The Survivor has won Best Sci-Fi awards at the Top Shorts and Festigious Film Festivals. It has also been shown at the Birmingham Film Festival and will next be showcased at the WildSound Film Festival in Los Angeles in March 2018.

The Survivor also serves as a proof of concept for a TV series Mark is developing called The Nearscape.
