The movie "Cargo" itself is an Australian post-apocalyptic thriller film directed by Mishka Keen and Andrew Adamson, and written by Keen, Adamson, and Shane McDonald. The film stars Luke Hemmings, Alicia Vikander, and Nathan Phillips. The plot revolves around a man who must protect a baby in a world overrun by zombies.

Set in rural Australia, infected humans turn feral within 48 hours. Andy (Martin Freeman) and his wife Kay have been surviving with their baby daughter, Rosie. When Kay gets infected, Andy must find a way to get Rosie to safety before he himself turns. The story focuses on time pressure, sacrifice, and the bond between father and child—more emotional and slow-burn than typical zombie films.

Throughout the film, themes of survival, hope, and the human condition in the face of catastrophe are explored. Given its low budget and independent nature, "Cargo" received praise for its intimate storytelling and performances.
