The Last of Us
Every path has a price.
Created by Neil Druckmann, Craig Mazin
On HBO
A brutal, emotionally interior post-apocalyptic survival story centered on the deepening bond between a hardened man and a young girl, where every relationship carries the weight of inevitable loss.
Twenty years after modern civilization has been destroyed, Joel, a hardened survivor, is hired to smuggle Ellie, a 14-year-old girl, out of an oppressive quarantine zone. What starts as a small job soon becomes a brutal, heartbreaking journey, as they both must traverse the United States and depend on each other for survival.
