Synopsis


How far are you willing to go to get accepted? In a dystopian city on the verge of collapse after cockroaches have taken over, a brotherhood sends 17-year-old Tim on a mission to blow up the cockroaches’ nest to save them all. But a meeting with a stranger makes Tim reconsider his perception of reality. Cockroachesis an animated fable about exclusion and extremism, showing how search for acceptance can have fatal consequences.
