DEFIANT

Cinemavixion Review

Stephen Krist's 'Defiant' presents a compelling narrative set in a world striving for an imposed peace. The film delves into the complex nature of identity and allegiance, as a soldier grapples with the unraveling truth behind his society's tranquility. The core conflict, centered on whether to embrace a manufactured order or a forgotten past, is powerfully explored through the protagonist's internal struggle. While the external data indicates a 2019 release and a runtime of 98 minutes, the essence of the story—a soldier's crisis of conscience—remains the driving force. The film invites audiences to ponder the true cost of peace and the courage it takes to remain 'Defiant' in the face of oppressive control, making it a thought-provoking watch for fans of speculative fiction with a humanistic core.
