"Straying away from the gore and violence, Cargo is a short film about the biggger picture and survival, not of oneself, but the family that survives once the virus has rampaged and overtaken your own body. A man frantically escapes from his car with his young baby as his wife, zombified, ravages at them, trapped in the car.
A not to subtle camera turn to a wounded arm and we know the dad is good as gone, and so he works towards reaching the safe zone, not for him but his child.
It's simple, but effective, music setting the emotional scene as his plan eventually succeeds, the child rescued, and the tragic plan finally succeeded"
