Overview
It is just another day in the small town of Hamlin until something disastrous happens. Suddenly, news breaks that a series of nuclear warheads has been dropped along the Eastern Seaboard and, more locally, in California. As people begin coping with the devastating aftermath of the attacks — many suffer radiation poisoning — the Wetherly family tries to survive.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A quiet apocalypse unfolds not in spectacle but in the slow, intimate degradation of ordinary life. Testament watches a small-town family grapple with the creeping reality of nuclear fallout, a film less about disaster and more about the patient erosion of hope.
