Filther

Filther is a love story centered around a man with a head shaped like a gas mask. With the world on the brink of nuclear war, he represents a new phase in evolution. In his solitude, he is searching for someone to share his life with before the world ends. A woman from a newly arrived circus might be his salvation. As one world ends, another begins.

Directed by Simen Nyland, Filther leans on a strong ensemble — Stig Frode Henriksen, Agnes Born, Kristian Winther — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about science fiction titles of 2025.
