Summaries

Storyline

On a hot summer day in Oslo, the dead mysteriously awaken, and three families are thrown into chaos when their deceased loved ones come back to them. Who are they, and what do they want? A family is faced with the mother's reawakening before they have even mourned her death after a car accident; an elderly woman gets the love of her life back the same day she has buried her; a grandfather rescues his grandchild from the grave site in a desperate attempt to get his daughter out of her depression. — Neon As the sun sets on an otherwise ordinary summer day in Oslo, a bizarre signal affects the city, leading to widespread power outages, migraines, and an unexplainable incident that defies logic. As the mysterious occurrence reanimates the recently deceased, three families grappling with unbearable loss experience a whirlwind of emotions when their loved ones return home. However, the resurrected ones are not the same as they were before. Pallid and soulless, the glassy-eyed relatives remain silent and unresponsive, compelled by an incomprehensible force to cling to life. Over the following hours, decay and death defy the unalterable laws of nature. Faced with the unprecedented challenge of handling the undead, what would you do if someone you loved came back from beyond the grave? — Nick Riganas
