DO YOU KNOW YOUR NAME
By Judah Ray

GENRE: Thriller / Suspense, Horror
LOGLINE:

In a post-apocalyptic world, Lilly becomes convinced by Adam that they have been brought together by a divine power with the purpose of repopulating the world, but when Nia arrives, the Humanimals that stalk them are the least of their worries. 

SYNOPSIS:

WHY THIS WOULD MAKE A GREAT MOVIE: Survival stories shouldn’t all look the same. Do You Know Your Name? centers a lead we’ve never seen before — and in doing so, reclaims the genre. It’s stripped-down sci-fi with real-world resonance: isolation, identity, resilience, and the monsters we become when humanity fractures. In a post-pandemic world full of uncertainty and division, this story challenges what it means to live, remember, and belong. At a time when the world is asking who gets to survive, this film answers with style and soul

PITCH:

In a world devastated by an apocalypse, two individuals, Lilly and Adam, believe they are the last remaining humans on Earth. Lilly, a blind woman, appears defenseless, while Adam, a hardened ex-soldier, harbors a delusion that he is the biblical Adam. He believes it is his divine duty to repopulate the Earth with Lilly, whom he sees as an incarnation of Lilith. Exploiting Lilly's vulnerability, Adam becomes her captor, using her as a pawn in his twisted plans. Although he claims to protect her, his true intentions reveal themselves as anything but pure.

Amidst this disturbing dynamic, Lilly and Adam's fragile existence is disrupted when they encounter Nia, another survivor who had been observing them. Concerned for Lilly's well-being, Nia inserts herself into their group, determined to watch over her. Lilly finds solace in Nia's presence, but Adam's delusions are shattered by her existence. His grip on reality slipping, Adam becomes increasingly unstable, secretly plotting Nia's demise. Failing to execute his plan covertly, he escalates to open aggression, forcing Lilly to choose sides.

In a violent and harrowing battle, Nia is shot, further fueling Lilly's determination to protect her newfound companion. Unleashing her hidden strength and resilience, Lilly blinds and kills Adam, proving that her perceived helplessness was a facade. However, Adam's demise is short-lived as he rises from the dead, transformed into a relentless zombie. He resumes his pursuit of Lilly, inching closer to her demise.

In a twist of fate, a group of soldiers arrives just in time, descending from a helicopter to rescue Lilly and Nia. Recognizing the dire situation, they realize that the dreaded apocalypse has become a grim reality. The soldiers act swiftly, shooting Adam in the head, ending his existence for good. As Lilly and Nia are safely whisked away, they come to terms with the magnitude of the cataclysmic events that have unfolded before them. The world they once knew has succumbed to the nightmarish horror of the undead.
