While humanity is still unsure whether to find a cure for the deadly pandemic that is ravaging it or to live with it, a scientist and a park ranger go on a routine mission that turns out to be a lot livelier than expected.

Ben Wheatley adds his name to the list of artists who have created, during the confinement, a work that mirrors the historical situation the planet has gone through. Fans of his cinema will know that the English director is not going to give in to the diary of his offbeat daily life. When he isolates himself in the countryside, it's to indulge in a trip from behind the scenes. At the crossroads of his A Field in England and Alex Garland's Annihilation, In the Earth navigates in a DIY science-fiction from which emerge anomalies embodied by the grandiose Reece Shearsmith (from the no less grandiose Inside No. 9 series) or by psychotropic emanations of the best effect.
