Synopsis
Cargo (2009) is a Swiss sci-fi thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Ivan Engler and Ralph Etter, with Anna-Katharina Schwaab in the lead.
The year is 2267. Earth is a dead planet after an ecological collapse, and the survivors are crammed into orbital stations. Young ship's doctor Laura Portman wants to reach Rhea — a distant world rumored to still be habitable. To pay for passage, she signs on with the Kuiper Corporation and boards the freighter Kassandra for an eight-year voyage to Station 42. The crew cycles through cryosleep, one person awake at a time for an 8.5-month watch shift. Laura goes first.
Near the end of her rotation, she hears something in the cargo hold. Then crew members start dying, trust breaks down fast, and the ship's actual cargo turns out to be nothing like what the manifest says.
Made in Switzerland on a modest budget, Cargo gets more out of its claustrophobic corridors than most sci-fi gets from a full effects package. The ending reframes everything that came before it. Stream Cargo online on iFILM.
