Sanctuary Hills

Sanctuary Hills is a 24-minute animated machinima drama created using Fallout 4 and Blender. Set during the final hours of the Sino-American War, the film follows the Washingtons, the only Black family in a gated community, who are denied access to the nuclear vault they paid for due to government-enforced racial discrimination. As the bombs fall, they are left to die—only to survive through a horrific mutation caused by radiation. Transformed and enraged, the Washingtons return to claim vengeance on the community that betrayed them.
