Synopsis

To exert more tyranny and suppression, the ruling power does something to its dissenters that makes them exhale smoke when they breathe. A driver, who mainly carries contraband, is asked to help a young dissenter slip across the border, but deciding to help the young man changes the course of their lives. Don’t Breathe is an interesting hard-boiled fantasy, with remarkable metaphors and satire about violent society.
