Return Safely is a dystopian fantasy short film about a lone woman's silent quest to protect and return a mysterious object back to its rightful place in a wintry wasteland that has been devastated by an environmental cataclysm. Hunted down by wolves and closely followed by an unknown stalker, the woman must rely on her own wits and resilience to survive the harsh elements and to defend against the constantly looming threat of death. Written and directed by Eric Burleson, Return Safely is a thrilling adventure that aims to thematically comment on wildlife preservation and the dangers of environmental indifference.
