Afflicted

In a world where wanderlust meets the raw immediacy of a self‑made documentary, two lifelong friends set out to chase the ultimate adventure: filming their own travel web series while fulfilling a final, heartfelt wish. Their journey unfolds across bustling cities, sun‑drenched coastlines and hidden corners of the globe, each frame capturing the thrill of discovery and the fragile beauty of a life lived on the edge. The tone is a blend of kinetic excitement and an undercurrent of unease, as the camera becomes both a window to wonder and a mirror reflecting something far darker.

The heart of the story lies in the bond between Clif and Derek. Clif is the eager chronicler, driven by a mix of artistic ambition and devotion to his friend, while Derek carries the weight of a looming, unexplained illness that threatens to halt their quest at any moment. Their camaraderie is tested as the illness progresses, turning ordinary moments into a race against time. Together they document every shift—physical, emotional, and psychological—transforming their footage into a desperate search for answers that feel as elusive as the horizons they chase.

As the pair venture deeper into unfamiliar territories, the line between reality and myth begins to blur. The world around them, filmed in stark, immersive detail, hints at hidden forces that challenge their understanding of friendship, mortality and the very purpose of their expedition. The atmosphere balances the exhilaration of travel with a creeping dread, inviting viewers to wonder what unseen truths lie just beyond the frame and how far two friends will go when the journey itself becomes a haunting test of survival.
