'Anna And The Apocalypse': The Scottish Zombie Christmas High School Musical

Heard on Weekend Edition Saturday
Anna and the Apocalypse is a [checks notes] Scottish zombie Christmas high school musical.
It drew raves in Great Britain, and has now been released in the United States. It's based on a short film by the writer-director Ryan McHenry, who died of bone cancer at age 27, and did not get to complete this feature-length production.
Anna and the Apocalypse is directed by John McPhail. Ella Hunt (who is English) stars as the young Scottish teen who's about to graduate from school, but first has to contend with the zombie takeover of her village and perhaps the world with a little help from her friends.
"I love that this film glorifies teenage friendship and not teenage romance," Hunt says in an interview. "To me, it's a much truer thing to glorify."
