Matthew Fox, iconic Lost actor, stars in Last Light on Prime Video. But what is this apocalyptic series, available since January 6 on the platform, about?
What is it about ?
The consequences of a sudden and absolute shortage of oil would have terrible consequences: paralysis of transport, stoppage of deliveries, overflows… On a mission in the Middle East, the petrochemical chemist Andy Yeats discovers that his worst fears are becoming reality.
Very quickly, the situation degenerated on a global scale. Far from his family, he will do everything to find them before the chaos is total.
The anxiety-provoking adaptation of an apocalyptic novel
Adapted from The Theory of Dominoes, a British novel by Alex Scarrow, Last Light skillfully explores the chain of consequences of a potential oil crisis. The dramatic stakes of the situation, filmed on an international scale, but also intimate and personal, are enough to create effective suspense during the 6 episodes of this mini-series.
Amazon Prime Video
The cast, invested and convincing, allows you to fully identify with this divided family. We find Matthew Fox, unforgettable Jack Shepherd of Lost, as a patriarch ready for anything. At his side, Joanne Froggatt (awarded a Golden Globe for her performance in Downtown Abbey), Tom Wlaschiha from Game of Thrones and rising star Victor Alli interpret as many facets of humanity in its dark hours.
Anger, determination or despair… Which path will they take?
Last Light has been available on Prime Video since January 6.
